Abstract

A computer-implemented method for managing operations of a system includes deriving a nonlinear modeling function from a nonlinear response function, defining an allowed range for output values of the nonlinear modeling function, determining a range of a first set of input values of the nonlinear modeling function based on the allowed range of the output values, deriving a nonlinear probability function from the nonlinear response function, receiving the first set of input values, calculating the output values by processing each input value in the first set of input values through the nonlinear modeling function, determining, using the probability function, a relative probability of performing a first future system operation for each input value of the first set of input values and displaying, for each input value in the first set of input values, the corresponding output value and the corresponding probability.
