TITLE
           Abstract: DW, Analytics, BI, Meta-Integration Technologies

           Meta-integration is considered data warehousing by
           some, while others describe it as data virtualization.
           This presentation provides an overview of meta-
           integration starting with organizational requirements.
           We will discuss how meta-models can be used to jump-
           start organizational efforts. Participants will understand
           the strengths and weaknesses of various technological
           capabilities, and the key role of data quality in all of
           them.

15 years ago, CarMax started as a way to make the car buying experience simple, fair, and fun. Today CarMax is a FORTUNE 500 retailer and one of FORTUNE’s “100 Best
Companies to Work For.” And we are hiring talented individuals who are interested in:--solving original, wide-ranging, and open-ended business problems
       TITLE
--not only discovering new insights, but successfully implementing them
--making a significant mark on a growing company
--developing the fundamental skills for a rewarding business career
                                                                                                                  CarMax Example Job Posting
If that sounds like you, the Strategy Analyst position is the unique opportunity you’ve been looking for. The strategy team at CarMax currently consists of over 40 analysts, many of
whom are recent college graduates from top schools with a variety of academic backgrounds (computer science, economics, English, engineering, journalism, math, political
science). These analysts lead advances and decisions in several key business areas:-Inventory and pricing—what is the optimal selection of inventory, how do we acquire it, what
should we pay for it, what should we price it for?
-Expansion planning—which markets should we enter and how do we store those markets? Will each $10-30 million store investment generate a sufficient economic return?
-Credit strategy—how can our bank (CarMax Auto Finance) approve more customers for loans and convert more approvals to sales?
-Marketing and consumer insight—how do we reach our customers, increase traffic to our stores, and best use the internet to drive sales and build our brand
-Industry and competitive research—what middle- and long-term risks are we exposed to, and how best do we prepare to respond?
-Production—how do we increase vehicle reconditioning quality while reducing cost and production time?
-Sales process and workforce—what is the best way to serve customers in our stores, and how do we manage, motivate and compensate our sales team?

Even early in your career at CarMax, you will have the responsibility to own an area of the business and will be expected to improve it. For example, one undergraduate recruit
used data analysis to reformulate our retail pricing strategy, pitched and sold his idea to the senior executive team, and implemented a new system nationwide in his first 6 months
with the company. That is the kind of impact you can make at CarMax. And as you do this, you will work closely with the senior executives and analytical managers to develop the
fundamental and advanced skills that underpin a successful career in business. In fact, most of our managers in the strategy group started at CarMax as analysts, and our VP of
Strategy and Analysis started his career here through our undergraduate recruiting program. While an MBA is not required to advance or contribute at CarMax, analysts who have
chosen to pursue a business degree have enjoyed superior acceptance rates at their first choice schools, including Harvard, Chicago, UVa, Columbia, and Duke.

Your opportunities to develop, contribute, and lead as an analyst at CarMax are as great as the company’s opportunity to grow. While CarMax is already the largest used car retailer
in the country (with over $8 billion in sales and over 90 superstores across the country), we have only 2% of the 1 to 6-year-old used car market, which, at $280 billion annually, is
bigger than the home improvement or consumer electronics industries. CarMax is already growing at 15% a year, and over the next 10 years plans to have 250-300 stores and
achieve $25+ billion in annual sales. As an analyst, you can be an integral part of that growth, all while enjoying a casual and friendly environment, a diverse group of talented
associates, a healthy work-life balance, and excellent compensation and benefits.

An ideal candidate will have

15 years ago, CarMax started as a way to make the car buying experience simple, fair, and fun. Today CarMax is a FORTUNE 500 retailer and one of FORTUNE’s “100 Best
Companies to Work For.” And we are hiring talented individuals who are interested in:--solving original, wide-ranging, and open-ended business problems
       TITLE
--not only discovering new insights, but successfully implementing them
--making a significant mark on a growing company
--developing the fundamental skills for a rewarding business career
                                                                                                                  CarMax Example Job Posting
If that sounds like you, the Strategy Analyst position is the unique opportunity you’ve been looking for. The strategy team at CarMax currently consists of over 40 analysts, many of
whom are recent college graduates from top schools with a variety of academic backgrounds (computer science, economics, English, engineering, journalism, math, political
science). These analysts lead advances and decisions in several key business areas:-Inventory and pricing—what is the optimal selection of inventory, how do we acquire it, what
should we pay for it, what should we price it for?
                          --solving original, wide-ranging, and open-ended business problems
-Expansion planning—which markets should we enter and how do we store those markets? Will each $10-30 million store investment generate a sufficient economic return?
-Credit strategy—how can our bank (CarMax Auto Finance) approve more customers for loans and convert more approvals to sales?
                          --not only discovering new insights, but successfully implementing them
-Marketing and consumer insight—how do we reach our customers, increase traffic to our stores, and best use the internet to drive sales and build our brand
-Industry and competitive research—what middle- and long-term risks are we exposed to, and how best do we prepare to respond?
                          --making a significant mark on a growing company
-Production—how do we increase vehicle reconditioning quality while reducing cost and production time?
-Sales process and workforce—what is the best way to serve customers in our stores, and how do we manage, motivate and compensate our sales team?

Even early in your career --developing the fundamental skills for a rewarding business career
                          at CarMax, you will have the responsibility to own an area of the business and will be expected to improve it. For example, one undergraduate recruit
used data analysis to reformulate our retail pricing strategy, pitched and sold his idea to the senior executive team, and implemented a new system nationwide in his first 6 months
with the company. That is the kind of impact you can make at CarMax. And as you do this, you will work closely with the senior executives and analytical managers to develop the
fundamental and advanced skills that underpin a successful career in business. In fact, most of our managers in the strategy group started at CarMax as analysts, and our VP of
Strategy and Analysis started his career here through our undergraduate recruiting program. While an MBA is not required to advance or contribute at CarMax, analysts who have
chosen to pursue a business degree have enjoyed superior acceptance rates at their first choice schools, including Harvard, Chicago, UVa, Columbia, and Duke.

Your opportunities to develop, contribute, and lead as an analyst at CarMax are as great as the company’s opportunity to grow. While CarMax is already the largest used car retailer
in the country (with over $8 billion in sales and over 90 superstores across the country), we have only 2% of the 1 to 6-year-old used car market, which, at $280 billion annually, is
bigger than the home improvement or consumer electronics industries. CarMax is already growing at 15% a year, and over the next 10 years plans to have 250-300 stores and
achieve $25+ billion in annual sales. As an analyst, you can be an integral part of that growth, all while enjoying a casual and friendly environment, a diverse group of talented
associates, a healthy work-life balance, and excellent compensation and benefits.

An ideal candidate will have
--Demonstrated top caliber analytic and problem solving skills --History of achievement demonstrated by top 15% GPA, with a quantitative major(s), and/or other recognition such
as scholarships, awards, honor societies
-- Passion for business and desire to develop into a strong business leader

                                                                                              1. Do some initial architecture
                                                                                                 envisioning.

                                                                                              2. Model the details just in time (JIT).

                                                                                              3. Prove the architecture early.

                                                                                              4. Focus on usage.

                                                                                              5. Organize your work by requirements.

                                                                                              6. Active stakeholder participation.

The strategy team at CarMax currently consists of over 40 analysts, many of whom are recent college graduates from top schools with a variety of academic backgrounds (computer science, economics, English, engineering, journalism, math, political science). These analysts lead advances and decisions in several key business areas:-Inventory and pricing—what is the optimal selection of inventory, how do we acquire it, what should we pay for it, what should we price it for? -Expansion planning—which markets should we enter and how do we store those markets? Will each $10-30 million store investment generate a sufficient economic return? -Credit strategy—how can our bank (CarMax Auto Finance) approve more customers for loans and convert more approvals to sales? -Marketing and consumer insight—how do we reach our customers, increase traffic to our stores, and best use the internet to drive sales and build our brand -Industry and competitive research—what middle- and long-term risks are we exposed to, and how best do we prepare to respond? -Production—how do we increase vehicle reconditioning quality while reducing cost and production time? -Sales process and workforce—what is the best way to serve customers in our stores, and how do we manage, motivate and compensate our sales team? Even early in your career at CarMax, you will have the responsibility to own an area of the business and will be expected to improve it. For example, one undergraduate recruit used data analysis to reformulate our retail pricing strategy, pitched and sold his idea to the senior executive team, and implemented a new system nationwide in his first 6 months with the company. That is the kind of impact you can make at CarMax. And as you do this, you will work closely with the senior executives and analytical managers to develop the fundamental and advanced skills that underpin a successful career in business. In fact, most of our managers in the strategy group started at CarMax as analysts, and our VP of Strategy and Analysis started his career here through our undergraduate recruiting program. While an MBA is not required to advance or contribute at CarMax, analysts who have chosen to pursue a business degree have enjoyed superior acceptance rates at their first choice schools, including Harvard, Chicago, UVa, Columbia, and Duke. Your opportunities to develop, contribute, and lead as an analyst at CarMax are as great as the company’s opportunity to grow. While CarMax is already the largest used car retailer in the country (with over $8 billion in sales and over 90 superstores across the country), we have only 2% of the 1 to 6-year-old used car market, which, at $280 billion annually, is bigger than the home improvement or consumer electronics industries. CarMax is already growing at 15% a year, and over the next 10 years plans to have 250-300 stores and achieve $25+ billion in annual sales. As an analyst, you can be an integral part of that growth, all while enjoying a casual and friendly environment, a diverse group of talented associates, a healthy work-life balance, and excellent compensation and benefits. An ideal candidate will have --Demonstrated top caliber analytic and problem solving skills --History of achievement demonstrated by top 15% GPA, with a quantitative major(s), and/or other recognition such as scholarships, awards, honor societies -- Passion for business and desire to develop into a strong business leader We encourage you to apply.

  • #67: Britain introduced the convoy system to reduce shipping losses, but while the principle of using warships to accompany merchant ships was generally accepted, it was unclear whether it was better for convoys to be small or large. Convoys travel at the speed of the slowest member, so small convoys can travel faster. It was also argued that small convoys would be harder for German U-boats to detect. On the other hand, large convoys could deploy more warships against an attacker. Blackett's staff showed that the losses suffered by convoys depended largely on the number of escort vessels present, rather than on the overall size of the convoy. Their conclusion, therefore, was that a few large convoys are more defensible than many small ones.\n
