one person involved . The calculated time period from Arrival-Date and Closed-Date
is than multiplied by the number of people yield from the Responsible attribute. We
have also experimented with discretizing this attribute with cutting points be one day
(1), half week (3 days), one week (7), two weeks (14), one month (30) and one
quarter (90 days), half year (180 days) and more than one year (360 days). The main
reason behind this exercise is to give an approximate estimate. It allows for a minor
change in human resource, and being not highly dependent on the exact human
resource involved.

3.2 Data Modelling and Mining
We have chosen three data mining techniques to analyse the PR data:
Predictive modelling on the PR data to make estimation on the time spent to fix a
PR according to the PR properties.
Link analysis to discover association among various PR characteristics.
Text mining to analyse Synopsis field to find out most representative words in the
problem-discussion, showing the major cause of a problem, along with the
relationship of each frequent word with other words to show how are they related.
