Probability management

The discipline of probability management communicates and calculates uncertainties as data structures that obey both the laws of arithmetic and probability. The simplest approach is to use vector arrays of simulated or historical realizations and meta data called (SIPs). A set of SIPs, which preserve statistical relationships between variables, is said to be coherent and is referred to as a Stochastic Library Unit with Relationships Preserved (SLURP). SIPs and SLURPs allow stochastic simulations to communicate with one another. For example, see Analytica (Wikipedia), Analytica (SIP page), Oracle Crystal Ball, Frontline Solvers, and Autobox.
