In 1990 a research project was funded by the Commission of the European Communities, within the frame of the funding programme EPOCH with the aim of evaluating the possibility of such integration. The project, which title was "A Comprehensive Forecasting System for Flood Risk Mitigation and Control"(AFORISM)(Todini, 1995c) aimed at verifying different approaches in rainfall modelling as well as in rainfall-runoff modelling and their integration in a decision support system both for planning and for real time flood forecasting and management. In order to do so a feasibility study, based upon the Reno river, aiming at integrating all the innovative technologies in an operational decision support tool for flood forecasting and flood impact analysis was carried out by the following research groups. 2, record 5, English, - A%20Comprehensive%20Forecasting%20System%20for%20Flood%20Risk%20Mitigation%20and%20Control

The Portfolio Risk and Institution Simulation Model(PRISM) is a forecasting tool designed to assist CDIC in performing risk analyses on member institutions. The basic premise underlying the model is that the forecast of future performance is uncertain. Rather than producing a single outcome as in traditional forecasting, PRISM produces a range of forecast outcomes with associated probabilities of occurrence, which should provide valuable insight into the volatility, or risk, an institution may be subject to in the future. 1, record 9, English, - Portfolio%20Risk%20and%20Institution%20Simulation%20Model

Le Modèle d'évaluation des risques par simulation (MERS) sert à établir des prévisions quant au risque que pourraient représenter, pour la SADC, ses institutions membres. Ce modèle repose sur le principe que toute prévision est incertaine. Contrairement aux méthodes de prévision traditionnelles, dont ne se dégage qu'un seul scénario possible, le MERS aboutit à plusieurs résultats possibles selon différentes conjonctures et détermine leurs probabilités de réalisation. 1, record 9, French, - Mod%C3%A8le%20d%27%C3%A9valuation%20des%20risques%20par%20simulation
