Analytical Solutions Forum

    (ASF) The business intelligence trade body
   that, in October 1999, replaced the ineffective OLAP Council
   intending to produce standards for OLAP.  The ASF managed
   the remarkably achievement of being even less effective and
   eventually disappeared, its only achievement having been the
   issuing of a press release announcing its formation.
