SIMPLIFIED ANALYSIS WHEREIN THE EFFECT OF AN IMMEDIATE CHANGE TO A SYSTEM IS CALCULATED WITHOUT REGARD TO THE LONGER-TERM RESPONSE OF THE SYSTEM TO THAT CHANGE
Static scoring; Static projection; Static Analysis
Static analysis, static projection, or static scoring is a simplified analysis wherein the effect of an immediate change to a system is calculated without regard to the longer-term response of the system to that change. If the short-term effect is then extrapolated to the long term, such extrapolation is inappropriate.
