Virtual Dike and Flood Simulator: Parallel distributed computing for flood early warning systems

The paper presents two simulation modules –Virtual Dike and Flood Simulator– developed for flood Early Warning Systems (EWS). The UrbanFlood EWS is a distributed system that (1) analyzes sensor data received in real-time from flood defenses (dikes, dams, etc.) and (2) simulates dike stability, breaching and flood propagation. Computational modules are invoked by workflow-based expert scenarios ...
