MODIST: Models of Uncertainty and Risk for Distributed Software Development

MODIST is a method and tool to help the managers of large Software Projects make more effective decisions in relation to Quality and Risk.

MODIST was developed with the financial support of the Commission of the European Communities under the Information Society Technologies programme (Project IST-2000-28749). The project partners were Agena, Israel Aircraft Industries, Philips Digital Systems Laboratories, Philips Innovative Applications and QinetiQ.

The MODIST project website is here.

The MODIST method and models are described in this document. The method has now been incorporated into the AgenaRisk toolset. One of the models, namely the project level model, is supplied as a standard example with the toolset. The model is also available separately here, while a video introducing the model is available here.
