Abstract

A research thesis into how to determine the influence of data quality on business performance using methodologies form the field of data uncertainty and data quality. A model is explained and validated which uses principles of probabilistic databases to show the uncertainty of information used in decisions. This uncertainty is based on the data quality of the source data. Finally the thesis shows how this influences business performance.
