I've been studying agile for a little while and I think it is very nice. Being a risk guy myself, I wonder if there is any use for Monte Carlo in between sprints. Can you tell me something about that?

Rami -

The author's point is that unless we are performing an activity multiple times with little variance it is of little value to use MC. A project is a unique endeavor so attempting to forecast overall schedule or cost for a solo event using MC wouldn't be effective.

Now there could be specific decisions on a project where there is a higher degree of repeatability where it could be used...

Thanks a lot Kiron, that makes lots of sense by the way.
