 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, Windows 7 and Windows 8  64-bit Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8  Windows Server 2003, 2008 and 2012

Software Architecture  New User Interface  New multi user version control system  New editing methodology  New grouping structure  Undo, Redo and Recycle bin

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

Scenario Manager

Software Architecture  Scenario Management for rapid model build and network analysis

Software Architecture  Mapping Control  ArcGIS  ArcEngine  MapXtreme  Map Free (i.e. no map control)  Support for ArcGIS server map services  Software Authentication  Hard (Dongle) or Soft (Key) Licence Options  Local or LAN / WAN based implementation  Full reporting on user access and usage

 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  True 3D Graphical Representation of Structures

Hydraulic Modelling  Infiltration from the 2D mesh after direct runoff

Basic Mesh  Mesh adapts to features in network or background layers.  But not to changes in terrain (ground model).  Triangles are a similar size in both flat and steep areas. Terrain-sensitive meshing Advanced Mesh  Mesh adapts to reduce ground level variation in each triangle.  Smaller triangles in steep areas model terrain more accurately.  Increasingly important as we move to 2D-only modelling.

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

Harnessing the latest computer technologies InfoWorks ICM can share computer resources to maximise the benefit of existing corporate IT systems. Operation is specifically designed for Workgroups and Enterprise Systems. GPU

Utilises Existing PC Resources  The software can be installed stand-alone for single- user operation.  Existing computer hardware, such as that used with older modelling applications, can be utilised when upgrading to InfoWorks ICM.  InfoWorks ICM provides better run-time performance when compared with InfoWorks CS and InfoWorks RS on the same PC hardware.

Utilises Existing PC Resources  As hydraulic models grow and become more complex, InfoWorks ICM users can start to operate as part of a small office work-group and share local computer resources to gain maximum efficiency.

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) Number of cores used Simulation Time (hrs)

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

 Simulation Server  Simulations can be run on Stand-alone workstations Within a Workgroup sharing computer resources Within an Enterprise System with dedicated servers and central store  Supports the concurrent running of multiple simulations, even with a single licence  Users are able to monitor and control the progress of selected simulations  Possible to re-schedule the queue and priority of simulation jobs

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, 600 and 700 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. Core2Duo T7700 – 32bit PC 29hrs, 55 mins, 41 seconds Dual Intel Xeon E5645 – 64bit 2hrs, 20mins, 53 seconds 1.15Gb RAM Dual Intel Xeon E5645 – 64bit with nVidia Telsa 2050 GPU 18 minutes, 7 seconds 1.49Gb RAM
