The World Programming System (WPS) is software for statistics that uses the SAS language. It was published in 2002 by the World Programming company.
With the WPS, scripts that use the statistical language SAS can be edited and executed. Code can be executed in batch mode via a command line environment or interactively via the graphical user interface and integrated development environment WPS Workbench. The WPS Workbench is based on Eclipse . This means that SAS code can also be executed on remote servers in the network or in the cloud. Also Multithreading is possible. The WPS supports numerous statistical analysis and graphic functions of the SAS language, macros and output for reporting in several formats. Other programming languages and databases can be integrated and files of various formats can be imported.
In 2012 the European Court of Justice ruled after a lawsuit by the SAS Institute that the WPS, which has no access to the source code of SAS, did not violate the copyright through the reengineering , since the copyright does not affect the software functionality, the programming language and files.
