Abstract
A computer-implemented tool and method of operating a calculational model is provided. The method includes selecting a model from a predetermined plurality of available models, entering input data corresponding to preformatted data entry fields that are predetermined for the selected model, converting the entered input data to a predetermined format corresponding to the selected model, and determining, using the selected model, a model result corresponding to the converted input data and the selected model.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method of operating a calculational model, said method comprising:
- selecting a model from a predetermined plurality of available models;
- entering input data corresponding to preformatted data entry fields that are predetermined for the selected model;
- converting the entered input data to a predetermined format corresponding to the selected model;
- and
- determining, using the selected model, a model result corresponding to the converted input data and the selected model.
A calculational model operation tool comprising:
- a user interface configured to display a preformatted data entry screen corresponding to user input selections, said user interface programmed to receive data input by a user;
- and
- a processor programmed to format input data received from the user interface into a configuration format corresponding to a selected model, said processor further programmed to execute the selected model using the input data in the configuration format.
A computer program embodied on a computer readable medium for operating a calculational model using a server system coupled to a client system and a database, the client system including a user interface, said program comprising a code segment that prompts a user to select at least one model and then:
- selects a model from a predetermined plurality of available models;
- receives input data corresponding to preformatted data entry fields that are predetermined for the selected model;
- converts the entered input data to a predetermined format corresponding to the selected model;
- and
- determines, using the selected model, a model result corresponding to the converted input data and the selected model.
