Answer / chaitanya
The ability to move between different combinations of
dimensions when viewing data with an OLAP browser.
Multidimensional analysis tools organize the data in two
primary ways: in multiple dimensions and in hierarchies.
Slicing and dicing refers to the ability to combine and re-
combine the dimensions to see different slices of the
information. Picture slicing a three-dimensional cube of
information, in order to see what values are contained in
the middle layer. Slicing and dicing a cube allows an end-
user to do the same thing with multiple dimensions.

Answer / surajit ray
===SLICING===
Slicing, as the name suggest, is a slice of the actual cube that is created by taking a single value of one of the dimensions from parent cube. It is more like a filter applied.
===Dicing===
Dicing is grouping of a few dimensions to produce a subset of parent cube. Selective values are taken from different dimensions to produce the sub cube
