Embodiments relate to processing a data set stored in a computer system. In one aspect, a method of processing a data set stored in a computer system includes providing one or more parameters for quantifying data quality of the data set. A processor generates, for each parameter of the one or more parameters, a reference pattern indicating a dysfunctional behavior of the values of the parameter. The data set is processed to obtain values of the one or more parameters. A parameter of the one or more parameters is identified whose obtained values match a corresponding reference pattern of the generated reference patterns. The identified parameter is assigned a resource weight value indicating the amount of processing resources required to fix the dysfunctional behavior of the identified parameter.
