This section discusses a means for efficiently representing uncertainty as probability distributions: Stochastic Information Packets (SIPs) are arrays of realizations of uncertainties, for example Monte Carlo simulation trials. Sets of SIPs, which maintain statistical dependence are known as Stochastic Library Units with Relationship Preserved (SLURPs). The SIPmath standard enables legacy and future simulation models to communicate with each other.
Strings of numbers representing uncertainty and probability distributions have been used at least since 1991 (Dembo, 1991). In 2005, the use of number strings (SIPs and SLURPs) was extended to drive interactive simulations for high-level decision-makers at ...
