Monte Carlo method validation tool

Science is in incessant evolution it grows with more precise theories and better instrumentation. The thermodynamic theories of polymers and polymeric systems move toward atomistic considerations for isomeric species modeled mathematically by molecular dynamics or Monte Carlo methods. At the same time good mean-field theories remain valid and useful—they must be remembered not only for the historical evolution of human knowledge, but also for the very practical reason of applicability, usefulness, and as tools for the understanding of material behavior. 

The Siro model is a good tool in the development of constituent retrieval algorithms for limb scan measurements. However, the Monte Carlo technique requires a lot of computer time. Faster models need to be developed for near-real time processing of limb spectra to constituent profiles. Siro serves as a reference against which faster but more approximate methods can be validated.
