how data modeling is usefull to cognos?..

Answer / harry

When you view or create a report, you are viewing and
manipulating data stored in your organization’s databases.
The following diagram explains the steps involved in using
Cognos 8.

In Framework Manager, the modeler ensures that metadata is
presented in a manner that business users can understand
it. Modelers import the metadata from one or more
databases, and then add to the model to meet user
requirements.

In Metric Designer, the modeler identifies the data items
and calculations that form the targets and actual results
for each metric.

The modeler then publishes and updates packages to Cognos
Connection so that authors can use them to create reports,
agents, and scorecards.

Business users and report authors use the published
packages to understand their business data.

Users run, view, and manage their content in Cognos
Connection. Depending on their security permission they may
be able to simply run and view reports or manage schedules,
portal layout, and other users’ permissions.
