<br />(\ <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Ie <br /> <br />003133 <br /> <br />Functional specifications for each modeling category were formulated, These <br />were based on characteristics of the required models and utilities as mentioned <br />in the scenario's. <br /> <br />Next, the various model categories were combined with the 12 need categories <br />to see if all need categories were represented among the models, These <br />comparisons are presented in Appendix C, Table C-l. A comparison with a <br />more detailed list of needs is presented in Appendix C. Table C-2, Note that for <br />some need categories no suitable modeling tools were found, or that some need <br />categories. for example, water quality analysis do not map onto any of the 9 <br />modeling,categories mentioned above, <br /> <br />Finally. an inventory of existing models was prepared for each model category, <br />The various models were evaluated against the following set of criteria: <br /> <br />. Time step, <br /> <br /> . General configuration. <br /> . Flexibility of modifying operation policies, <br /> . AggregationlDisaggregation capabilities, <br /> . Representation of power generation. <br /> . Representation of water quality, <br />e . Representalion of water rights, <br /> . Representation of groundwater, <br /> . User friendliness, <br /> . Documentation. <br /> <br />-- <br /> <br />. Required hardware. and <br /> <br />. Ownership. <br /> <br />The results of this evaluation are presented in Appendix C, Tables C-3 through <br />Cog, <br /> <br />The results of this inventory serve several purposes. First of all, they map <br />model categories and specific models onto need categories. As such CRDSS <br />developers have a guide as to which models to implement for which type of <br />need category. <br /> <br />Furthermore, the model inventory gives a good overview of the efforts needed <br />to provide CRDSS with full modeling capabilities. In Task 7 (Development <br />Cost Estimates) detailed cost estimates for the integration of the various <br />models are presented. These were derived using the results of this model <br />inventory. <br /> <br />Also; for the formulationofa preliminary work plan (Task 9). Jesults,fromthe <br />modeling inventory are used to formulate the various work tasks and their <br /> <br />Evaluation Criteria <br /> <br />Results <br /> <br />DAMES& MOORE/CADSWES-14 <br />
