JMP (statistical software)

JMP (pronounced "jump") is a computer program for statistics developed by the JMP business unit of SAS Institute. It was created in the 1980s to take advantage of the graphical user interface introduced by the Macintosh. It has since been improved and made available for the Windows operating system. JMP is used in applications such as Six Sigma, quality control and engineering, design of experiments and scientific research.

The software consists of five products: JMP, JMP Pro, JMP Clinical, JMP Genomics and the JMP Graph Builder App for the iPad; a scripting language is also available. The software is focused on exploratory analytics, whereby users investigate and explore data, rather than testing a hypothesis.

History

JMP was developed in the 1980s by John Sall and a team of developers to make use of the graphical user interface introduced by the 1984 Apple Macintosh. It originally stood for “John’s Macintosh Program” and was first released in October 1989. It was used mostly by scientists and engineers for design of experiments (DOE), quality and productivity support (Six Sigma), and reliability modeling. Semiconductor manufacturers were also among JMP’s early adopters.
