Description

How do statistical methods percolate from an article to incorporation into a statistical package? Very few methods end up in commercial software - what determines which methods are selected? The process seems to take very long - what steps are involved? Panel members from leading statistical software firms will share their experiences. Audience members should leave with a better understand of the process, and how to improve the chance that their own methods end up in software.
