    DECOMPRESSION MODEL The programs within the Pro Plus 3 simulate the absorption of nitrogen into the body by using a mathematical model. This model is merely a way to apply a limited set of data to a large range of experiences. The Pro Plus 3 dive computer model is based upon the latest research and experiments in decompres- sion theory.
