Abstract: Forrester´s model (FM) is a system of nonlineal differential equations constructed at far 70-s. Since that time FM remains a classical example of applications of system dynamics principles. This paper shortly describes the theory, algorithms and program WorldDyn? for end-users being interested to meet themselves with FM. Moreover the program allows to model undefiniteness presented in the form of additive or multiplicative noise. By the moment there is no any free-share software having these possibilities.

Keywords: Forrester model, numerical analysis, noise-immunity, applied software.
