vs. What is the difference? presented by Andrew Walker
What is the difference? • The differences between the two products come into three basic categories:- • Software Architecture • Hydraulic Modelling • IT Implementation
Software Architecture • Database Type • No size limit • Innovyze Database, Microsoft SQL, Oracle • Managed by a dedicated Workgroup Database Server • Truly multi-user access with full conflict control • Windows Platform • 32-bit Windows Xp, Vista, Win 7 and Win 8 • 64-bit Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 • Windows Server 2003, 2008 and 2012
Software Architecture • Scenario Management for rapid model build and network analysis • Allows different “what if” scenarios to be quickly applied to a base Network • Enables efficient examination of alternative modelling scenarios • User selects which scenarios to analyse, the software automatically runs all the different scenarios
Software Architecture • Scenario Management for rapid model build and network analysis
Software Architecture • Software Authentication • LAN / WAN Based implementation • HASP HL Max and HASP HL Net Dongles • Full reporting on user access and usage • Mapping Control • ArcGIS • ArcEngine • MapXtreme • Map Free (i.e. no map control) • Support for ArcGIS server map services
Hydraulic Modelling • Ability to model the complete above and below ground drainage system (natural and engineered) in one model. • 1D and 2D calculations standard throughout package.
Hydraulic Modelling • True representation of Open Channels • No limit to x-Sections • Full hydraulic interaction with 2D zones along length of channel and over both river banks • Support for bridges and in-line bank spills
Hydraulic Modelling • Full Water Quality across all Domains • Conservative and non-conservative pollutants throughout (1D and 2D) • Support for decaying pollutants • New determinants: dissolved oxygen (DO), nitrite (NO2), nitrate (NO3), pH (PH), salt (SAL), water temperature (TW) and coliforms (COL) • Structure reaeration: reaeration coefficients can be specified for controls (excluding pumps) in the network • Temperature changes • Oxygen demand
Hydraulic Modelling • Infiltration from the 2D mesh after direct runoff
Hydraulic Modelling • True 3D Graphical Representation of Structures
Harnessing the latest computer technologies InfoWorks ICM can share computer resources to maximise the benefit of existing corporate IT systems. GPU Operation is specifically designed for Workgroups and Enterprise Systems.
IT Implementation • Available in 32-bit and 64-bit editions • Can run standalone, in a workgroup, or as an enterprise system • Component parts include Workgroup Client, Remote Agent and Database Server • Licensee can mix ‘n’ match Model Build and Simulation seats as required • Viewer only edition is available
IT Implementation • Hardware Support • Support for a wide range of Intel and AMD CPU’s, including multi-processor units • InfoWorks ICM Simulation Engine is multi-core aware (fully tested up to 32 cores) Simulation Time (hrs) Number of cores used
IT Implementation • Hardware Support • Multiple Simulation jobs can execute concurrently on a given agent with a single licence • A limit can be set on the number of threads used by an individual simulation job
IT Implementation • GPU detection for accelerated 2D calculations • Detects all nVidia CUDA enabled GPU’s with Compute Level 2.0 or higher • Tesla GPU Computing Products • Quadro Products • NVS Products • GeForce 400, 500 and 600 series
IT Implementation • GPU acceleration is significant! • Example : 2D Model, Auckland NZ • 1,500Ha area with rainfall on 100% of the mesh. • Just under 1 million 2D elements.
