Technical Report: Preliminary Development of Computational Sensitivity Analysis
Overview This paper presents the use of sensitivity analysis in computer science, aiming to improve the stability in real-time computer applications (Power Grid, Nuclear Reactors or any control systems). Concepts of sensitivity analysis are used to study the uncertainty in computer programs due to small perturbations of the parameters. The ideas of mathematical and computational methods of sensitivity analysis are discussed in detail. Some of the advantages and disadvantages of both these methods are addressed. A user-friendly GUI tool is developed to compute sensitivities of application codes using VB.NET, C, and Visual Basic Applications for Excel macros. The tool was developed based on the computational method of sensitivity analysis.
