An approach to problem analysis which weighs risks in a situation by introducing probabilities to give a more accurate assessment of the risks involved.  2, record 1, English, - risk%20analysis

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT

In probability analysis a specific probability distribution is assigned to each variable selected within the sensitivity analysis step. Risk analysis exploits Monte Carlo simulation techniques to aggregate the probabilities assigned to the critical variables. In choosing the level of aggregation of the possibly critical variables within the sensitivity analysis, the literature suggests focusing on low-level quantities that compose the grand categories of cash flow.  3, record 1, English, - risk%20analysis

The result is most commonly reported in the form of a cumulative probability curve plotted on a graph, in which the vertical axis represents the probability that a measure of project worth will fall below a stated value, and the horizontal axis represents the values of the measure of project worth.  5, record 1, English, - risk%20analysis

Técnica analítica mediante la que se determinan las probabilidades de ocurrencia con respecto a todos los elementos críticos del proyecto y después, por computadora, se hacen cálculos repetidos de una medida del valor del proyecto, en que cada elemento entra en computaciones sucesivas de acuerdo con su probabilidad de ocurrencia. El resultado se da a conocer más comúnmente en forma de una curva de probabilidad acumulativa trazada sobre un gráfico, en el que el eje vertical representa la probabilidad de que una medida del valor del proyecto caiga por debajo de un valor establecido, y el eje horizontal representa los valores de la medida del valor del proyecto.  2, record 1, Spanish, - an%C3%A1lisis%20de%20riesgo

Representations which state, suggest or imply that a particular food is nutritionally superior to or healthier than other foods are considered misleading, since one's entire food intake, not a single part of it, is the critical variable in determining the nutritional adequacy of the diet and its contribution to reducing risk for chronic disease.  3, record 3, English, - nutritional%20adequacy

Expérience embarquée sur Mir, «Alice» concernera le comportement hydrodynamique et thermique de différents fluides, qu'il s'agisse de fluides purs ou de mélanges (dans certaines conditions de température, de pression et de concentration spécifiques de chaque corps, le point critique est celui où le corps se trouvera en même temps en phase liquide et gazeuse). Les phénomènes qui se manifestent lorsqu'un fluide s'approche de son point critique ne peuvent être complètement étudiés au sol, le fluide étant en quelque sorte «écrasé» par son propre poids, par effet de gravité. «Alice» permettra d'étudier une grande variété de fluides au cours d'un même vol.  2, record 5, French, - analyse%20des%20liquides%20critiques%20dans%20l%27espace

Key value drivers are those variables that determine the value delivered to customers. Managers should examine these both individually and in conjunction with each other to maximise value for customers and shareholders alike.  1, record 6, English, - value%20driver

For example, airlines know that passenger load is the most critical variable affecting their profitability. Therefore they focus on increasing this figure, adding as much to shareholder value as possible without destroying value in other aspects of the business. Likewise, a television cable company knows that the number of subscribers is the all-important variable in determining their profitability. The goal of value chain analysis is to discover these key drivers of shareholder value by understanding how each activity the firm undertakes creates value for customers.  1, record 6, English, - value%20driver
