1. A central data processor, comprising:
- at least one data processing module configured to process data, the data processing modules comprising;
an entity extraction module configured to extract entities from the data;
a network extraction module configured to communicate with the entity extraction module and to extract relationships between two or more entities extracted by the entity extraction module; and
a scenario building module for building a system map, each system map comprising one or more factors and one or more influence relationships between the one or more factors, the factors being derived from the extracted entities and relationships, each factor being associated with one or more options.

Abstract
Data is processed at a central data processor using multiple processing steps. The data is processed for the extraction of entities. Relationships between the extracted entities are also extracted. A system map is built using one or more factors derived from the extracted entities and relationships and organized by influence relationships. Each factor is associated with one or more options.

48. A computer readable medium containing instructions for performing a method for analyzing data, the method comprising:
-
searching a collection of data to find data relevant to a system; processing the relevant data to extract entities and relationships between the entities; inputting a plurality of factors that affect an outcome of the system, the factors being derived from the extracted entities and relationships; creating a risk model comprising a hierarchy of nodes, wherein at least one of the nodes is representative of one of the factors, the represented factor comprising a value, and wherein the value of at least one other node in the risk model is being calculated using the value of the representative factor as an input; and updating the value of the representative factor in response to the processing. - View Dependent Claims (49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63)
