Example Models
The Wiki pages here provide a repository for Analytica models and libraries. Supplementary material may be included here describing the model, its usage, etc. Models or libraries may be contributed because they are useful for particular applications, provide a starting point for certain modeling tasks, demonstrate an Analytica concept, etc.
Several dozen models are included with the Analytica distribution, installed onto your machine when you install Analytica. These models are not also here on the Wiki yet, but may be added in the future. Furthermore, as updates to these models occur, more recent versions will be made available here.
Analytica users may also contribute their own models and examples here. For instructions on how to upload your own contributions, see Uploading Example Models.

This model implements a continuous-time Markov chain in Analytica's discrete-time dynamic simulation environment. It supports immigration to, and emigration from, every node.
It can be used by an arts organization to probabilistically forecast future audience evolution, in both the short and the long (steady state) term. It also allows for uncertainty in the input parameters.

A demo model that shows how to:
- Evaluate a set of R&D projects, including uncertain R&D costs, and uncertain revenues if it leads to release of a commercial product.
- Use multiattribute analysis to compare projects, including a hard attribute -- expected net present value -- and soft attributes -- strategic fit, staff development, and public good will.
- Compare cost, NPV, and multiattribute value for a selected portfolio of projects.
- Generate the best portfolio (ratio of NPV or multiattribute merit to cost) given a R&D budget.
