Patent attributes
Ranking a group of datasets using a computer includes determining a set of target data fields from a set of process documents that indicate user data field preferences. A set of target dataset attributes from a set of data use documents indicate user data scope preferences. A plurality of metadata sets for an associated plurality of datasets the computer determines having a field suitability value exceeding a predetermined suitability threshold value. The FSV represents a degree of similarity between a set of fields associated with said dataset and the set of target data fields. The computer assesses metadata sets with regard to the target attributes and generates a compared attribute score for each candidate dataset. A degree of likelihood is indicated that an associated dataset will have content exhibiting said target dataset attributes. The computer candidate datasets is based on the compared attribute score.
