Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The advent of airborne connectivity technology has enabled the development of low-cost decision support tools that improve operating efficiency. Quantifying the benefit of new cost-saving technologies for a fleet of aircraft is a fundamental challenge in proving the value for a business case. Rather than costly flight trials, GE proposes a Monte Carlo simulation using physics-derived models against a standard baseline.
