Description:
MOUSE (Modular Oriented Uncertainty SystEm) deals with the problem of uncertainties in models that consist of one or more algebraic equations. It was especially designed for use by those with little or no knowledge of computer languages or programming. It is compact (and thus can be run on almost any personal computer), it is easy and fast to learn, and has most of the features for substantive uncertainty analysis (built-in probability distributions, plotting and graphing capabilities, sensitivity analysis, interest functions for cost analyses, etc.). Moreover, a series of unique companion utility programs not only write much of the necessary computer code for the user and help in analyzing sample data to determine the probability distributions that best suit that data, but they check each program for errors in syntax, and assist in finding logical errors in the models under study.
