Data Mining Tasks

Data mining tasks are generally divided into two main categories-predictive and descriptive tasks. As an example, auto manufacturers use this extensively.

If the auto manufacturers were to run out of parts, they would need to stop the line assembling autos, which is very expensive.

How would an auto part manufacturer (aka Tier 1 manufacturers) use predictive process and the shipment timing process? The paper would need to be 1-2 pages. Please use proper APA citation for your sources. Discussion Forum: Data mining is used throughout the many industries across manufacturing and services. Choose a service and manufacturing organization and describe how each would use this and the benefits the organization would experience.
