The SAS System is an integrated suite of software    
for enterprise-wide information delivery.  The functionality of   
the system is built around the four data-driven tasks common to   
virtually any application -- data access, data management, data   
analysis and data presentation.  Applications of the SAS System
include executive information systems; data entry, retrieval,   
and management; report writing and graphics; statistical and    
mathematical analysis; business planning, forecasting, and      
decision support; operations research and project management;
statistical quality improvement; computer performance               
evaluation; and applications development.
                        
The SAS System is modularly designed to give organizations       
the flexibility to license only the functionality they need. As     
their needs grow and change, additional components can be added     
on in a completely integrated manner across the wide range of           
computing environments supported by the software.
