Comparison of Performance between RiskyProject versions

[Nathan]

Has anyone compared the Monte Carlo simulation outputs between different versions of RiskyProject? I’m curious if the underlying engine or algorithms have changed.

[Intaver Support]

Yes. there have been both significant and subtle differences in performance between older and newer versions:

• Starting with version 6.1, the simulation engine was implemented multi-threading which dramatically increased performance especially on very large schedules.
• With version 7.x risk impact modeling has also improved as well as improvements to the calculation algorithm have been implemented with each release (7, 7.1, and 7.2)
• With version 7.1 RiskyProject added Schedule Consolidation and Subprojects to improve the ability to run SRAs on extremely large programs.

The best source for tracking these changes are the RiskyProject Release Notes that are included in the first part of the User Guide for each major release.
