      <title>Time Series Foundation</title>
      <description>Time Series Foundation (TSF) is an open, .NET platform for exploring and prototyping new algorithms in time series analysis and forecasting. TSF is based on state space model methodology that includes all types of exponential smoothing, some autoregressive algorithms, and innovative algorithms for event detection and calendar event impact prediction. TSF relies on Excel charting and presentation APIs by implementing an Excel interop layer. Numerical and graphical results of time series analysis and forecasting can be put in programmatically generated workbooks with the help of this layer. TSF also offers an Excel add-in that exposes a large subset of the platform's functionality through the Excel ribbon UI.</description>

      <title>NoReplyAll Outlook Add-In</title>
      <description>The primary function of this add-in is to add a few buttons to the Outlook ribbon to prevent people from replying to all the recipients of your message or forwarding it. The add-in uses a facility built into Outlook and Exchange that is more lightweight than information-rights management but is not exposed in the existing UI. The add-in also includes a check for common email errors, such as omitting attachments or subject lines.</description>

      <title>Filzbach</title>
      <description>Filzbach is a flexible, fast, robust, parameter-estimation engine that enables you to parameterize arbitrary, non-linear, parameter-rich models—of the kind that are necessary in biological sciences, for example--against multiple, heterogeneous data sets. Filzbach supports Bayesian parameter estimation, maximum-likelihood analysis, priors, latents, hierarchies, error propagation, and model selection. The Filzbach package can be used with Visual Studio 2010 or Visual Studio 2010 Express.</description>

      <title>Holmes Statistical Debugging Tool Kit for NUnit</title>
      <description>Holmes is an automated debugging and failure-analysis tool that uses statistical analysis of code-coverage data to identify the most likely cause of test failures. Holmes uses a custom data-collection tool to amass detailed path coverage during testing. The tool analyzes this coverage data to find paths that strongly correlate with failure. Holmes can be used to select and analyze a set of test runs, to navigate to the most likely causes of test failures in source code, to set break points, and to re-run specific failing tests. This release of Holmes integrates with Visual Studio 2008 and NUnit.</description>

      <title>Excel Cloud Data Analytics</title>
      <description>Excel Cloud Data Analytics is a Microsoft Excel add-in that enables users to execute a variety of data-centric tasks on Windows Azure through a custom Ribbon in Excel. This add-in can be used to connect to data stored in the Windows Azure cloud and can be extended to connect to a variety of other data sources. It also provides a general framework in which the user can create data-analytics methods and run them in Windows Azure. The current code base supports the execution in Windows Azure via built-in access to Daytona, an iterative MapReduce runtime for Windows Azure. Using Excel Cloud Data Analytics, users can upload data to Windows Azure, select and run registered data-analysis algorithms in the cloud through Windows Azure, monitor the execution of the data analysis, and retrieve results for display or further processing.</description>
