ABSTRACT
As a way to quantify the robustness of a chaotic system, a scheme is proposed to determine the extent to which the parameters of the system can be altered before the probability of destroying the chaos exceeds 50%. The calculation uses a Monte-Carlo method and is applied to several common dissipative chaotic maps and flows with varying numbers of parameters.
