Summary: SDMinP is an easy-to-use program for fast calculation of empirical and adjusted P-values for correlated and uncorrelated hypotheses in multiple testing experiments. It is based on the Free Step-Down Resampling Method for controlling the family wise error rate, and implements a variation of an efficient algorithm, which reduces the originally required re-sampling effort considerably and makes the method computationally feasible. The program is independent of the underlying test statistic and works with provided observed and permutation test statistics.
