You can read about Monte Carlo Risk Analysis in Chris Hendricksons on-line book Project Management for Construction: Scheduling with Uncertain Durations
Basically, Monte Carlo Analysis allows you to enter Optemistic/Most Likely/Pessimistic durations on activities. You then identify the task you wish to evaluate(ie project/milestone completion activity).
You then run iterations where the system computes different combinations using programme logic and duration combinations.
End result would be a % likely completion of the identified milestones and completion dates.
Spider Project is most functional and powerful professional project management software.
The first SP version was launched in 1993 and since then it has been constantly improved. Today is used in 34 countries though most Spider Project customers are in Russia. Spider Project offers numerous unique functional features and is the only PM software that optimizes resource, cost, and material constrained schedules and budgets for projects and portfolios.
The unique features of Spider Project include Quantity Based Scheduling, Conditional Scheduling, Skill Scheduling, Optimal Resource, Cost and Material Leveling, Resource Critical Path Calculation, Cash and Material Flows Calculation and Management, Trend Analysis, Advanced Risk Simulation and Analysis, Calculation of Success Probability Trends, Calculation and Management of required Project Time and Cost Buffers, Application of Corporate Norms, Management of many Parallel Budgets, Multiple WBS and many others.
Spider Project was and is used for management of many large scale programs in Russia, including $51bln construction program for 2014 Winter Olympic Games preparation.
The application areas where Spider Project is successfully used include Aerospace, Banking, Construction, Defense, Energy, Engineering, Infrastructure, Manufacturing, Metallurgy, Mining, Oil & Gas, Railways, Retail, Shipbuilding, Software Development, Telecommunications, Utilities, etc.

Create Radically Better Construction Schedules with ALICE Technologies
Use the power of AI to create construction schedules that reduce risk while cutting costs and build time. With ALICE, develop the ideal schedule during preconstruction -- or recover projects that are off schedule and over budget.
Open Plan was capable of quick Monte Carlo simulations, and gave detailed information regarding our activities early and late dates

There are several discussions in the Schedule Risk and Schedule Risk Analysis forum regarding Monte Carlo.

Hi
Please let me know what is this Monte Carlo Risk Anlysis & where do I get to learn this methodology
