Description: @RISK uses a technique known as Monte Carlo simulation to allow you to take all possible outcomes into account. Simply replace uncertain values in your spreadsheet model with @RISK functions to represent a range of possible values. Select bottom-line cells, like Total Profits, as outputs, and start a simulation. @RISK recalculates your spreadsheet hundreds or even thousands of times, each time selecting random numbers from the @RISK functions you entered. The result: distributions of possible outcomes and the probabilities of getting those results. This not only tells you what could happen in a given situation, but how likely it is that it will happen. @RISK 4.5 for Excel comes in three editions — Standard, Professional, and Industrial — to allow you to select the feature set which best meets your needs.

Description: AgentSheets is a revolutionary authoring tool that allows non-programmers to create agents with behaviors and missions, teach agents to react to information and process it in personalized ways, and combine agents to create sophisticated interactive simulations and models. Our customers use AgentSheets to create interactive games, virtual worlds, training simulations, information gathering and personalizing agents, and other interactive content. Users can interact with their agents via multiple modalities such as mouse and keyboard input, speech recognition and synthesis, music, and video. AgentSheets features our unique Visual AgenTalk® tactile and rule-based language to create, modify, and customize agent behavior. The Ristretto® generator technology incorporated in AgentSheets turns a simulation directly into an interactive Java applet embedded in a Web page. AgentSheets enables users to deliver content on PDAs (such as iPAQ), cell phones, Web browsers, and desktop machines. Content can take the form of Java applets, JavaBeans or Macromedia Flash movies. AgentSheets runs both on Windows and Macintosh platforms. Both versions are available at our secure store. If you wish to try the products before buying them, you can download a 10-day trial version.
