Abstract

The Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM) describes the standard approach for assessing uncertainty. By considering the law of uncertainty propagation, it tells us how to compute variance of functions of several random variables. Although the method is straightforward, it can become rather involved depending on the complexity of the model. In this work we develop a package for Mathematica software system which aims to render the procedure of calculation uncertainty simple and transparent for the end user.
