FISM Procedure
PROC FISM Features
The FISM procedure has the following features:
reads input data in parallel when the data source is on a distributed system
supports the FP-growth algorithm, which is currently one of the fastest approaches to frequent item set mining
supports parallel implementation of the FP-growth algorithm in a distributed environment for faster performance
stores large databases in compact FP-tree format, which uses memory efficiently
