Abstract: After a brief review of the electroweak radiative corrections to gauge-boson self-energies, otherwise known as the direct and oblique corrections, a tool for calculation of the oblique parameters is presented. This tool, named OPUCEM, brings together formulas from multiple physics models and provides an error-checking machinery to improve reliability of numerical results. It also sets a novel example for an "open-formula" concept, which is an attempt to improve the reliability and reproducibility of computations in scientific publications by encouraging the authors to open-source their numerical calculation programs. Finally, we demonstrate the use of OPUCEM in two detailed case studies related to the fourth Standard Model family. The first is a generic fourth family study to find relations between the parameters compatible with the EW precision data and the second is the particular study of the Flavor Democracy predictions for both Dirac and Majorana-type neutrinos.
