Getting Started with DPL 9
Welcome to DPL 9!
If you've used earlier versions of DPL, click here to see what's new in DPL 9.
DPL Examples Navigator
When you first open DPL, the Examples Navigator window will be displayed. You can re-open the Navigator at any time by clicking the Navigator button on the Help tab. The Navigator contains a sampling of the DPL example models installed with your trial license. It provides the industry, techniques employed, and a brief description of the given DPL example model.
DPL User Guides
One of the best ways to get started using DPL is to work through the tutorials found in the DPL 9 Users Guides that is provided with your license. You can find the user guides in PDF format within the Documentation folder of your DPL installation directory. The corresponding examples files are located within the Examples folder of the same directory. You can also download the guides from our website here:
The manual is intended to be read while working with DPL. Each chapter is in a tutorial style and will prompt you to use one of the DPL example models installed with your trial. The chapters will provide you with the tools needed to develop real world DPL models for your decision-problems.
