Expect Value™
WHAT'S NEW IN DPL 7

New Endpoint Database™ DPL Professional, DPL Enterprise, DPL Portfolio

  • Record your endpoints during a Decision Analysis run, then replay them to perform further analyses without any recalculation
  • All the endpoints are displayed in tabular form, where they can be filtered/sorted
  • Export endpoints for post-processing in Excel or other applications
  • Import endpoints to use an external value model that doesn't support linking
Initial Decision Alternatives Tornado
  • Like a Base Case tornado but for all the alternatives of an upfront decision
Option Value Chart DPL Professional, DPL Enterprise, DPL Portfolio
  • Easily obtain a chart showing the "option value" of downstream decisions
Value Correlations DPL Professional, DPL Enterprise, DPL Portfolio
  • See how each value in the model is correlated with the overall measure of value
  • Can be an insightful sensitivity analysis for some "tornado resistant" model structures
Scenario Risk Profiles DPL Professional, DPL Enterprise, DPL Portfolio
  • Easily (2 clicks!) obtain a risk profile for all the scenarios below a node in the Policy Tree™
Arrays/Series in the Influence Diagram DPL Professional, DPL Enterprise, DPL Portfolio
  • Enter arrays (1 and 2-dimensional) and series in the influence diagram
  • Link to a whole row/range in Excel without "value node farms"
Default States
  • Events (chance nodes, decisions) now have explicitly set default states
  • Base case tornado setup is faster
  • Asymmetric trees linked to spreadsheets are easier
Fat Policy DPL Professional, DPL Enterprise, DPL Portfolio
  • View the rolled-back expected values of all attributes (not just the objective function) in the Policy Tree™
  • Obtain risk profiles for all attributes in a single Decision Analysis run
Database Initialization Links DPL Enterprise, DPL Portfolio
  • Initialize your model using data stored in a database
Developer API DPL Enterprise, DPL Portfolio
  • Control DPL from another application using OLE Automation
  • Build a custom front-end interface and invoke DPL in the background
Aggregation of Expert Assessments DPL Enterprise, DPL Portfolio
  • Built-in capability to combine probability assessments from multiple experts
Portfolio Reporting DPL Portfolio
  • Improved project categorization
  • New reports and charts
