TUFLOW Run Interface Manager (TRIM) is a product developed by [httphttps://www.csse.com.au Catchment Simulation Solutions] to help manage your TUFLOW model runs more efficiently. It allows you to manage a large queue of simulations with any designated number of simulations running simultaneously. This ensures the fastest job completion and maximum license utilisation.

TRIM is free for a one simultaneous simulation version. For more information on commercial license options, please vist [httphttps://www.csse.com.au/trim this page].

==Increasing the speed of your TUFLOW modelling==
 
We all want to get our TUFLOW simulations complete ASAP. TRIM is designed to aid in this process by clever queue management ensuring all available licenses are in use at all time. However, there are also a couple ofsome ways to speed up individual simulations. These include
 
===Auto Stop===
 
TRIM can automatically stop your simulation once it has safely passed the peak. This can save loads of time. For more information refer [httphttps://www.csse.com.au/trim_online_help/index.php?trim_autostop.htmhtml here]. Note, if your modelling PC is unattended, you may need to apply the fix at the bottom of the [httphttps://www.csse.com.au/trim_online_help/index.php?trim_autostop.htmhtml page] to get Auto Stop to work properly.
 
===Hide Windows===
 
TRIM has an option to suppress the TUFLOW console display. Besides avoiding hijacking the screen when new windows are launched, we are investigating if this can improve performance (we have observed up to a 10% speed increase based on the tutorial model).
 
==Automation of Post Processing==
 
Fiddling around with batch files to post process your simulations is virtually a thing of the past with TRIM's automation of post processing. TRIM can automatically group your simulations (based on common ARIs), run dat_t_dat to extract peak results and run TUFLOW_to_GIS to convert to common formats. It can also automatically create other formats such as TAB / SHP / TIF and others. Detailed documentation can be found [httphttps://www.csse.com.au/trim_online_help/index.php?automation_of_post_processing.htmhtml here] but there are a couple tricks to using this tool.

===Auto-grouping of simulations===
 
The power of automated post processing is at its best when used with Events and Scenarios models. These can be configured using the [httphttps://www.csse.com.au/trim_online_help/index.php?events_and_scenarios.htmhtml Events and Scenarios GUI]. The table icon button allows you to automatically add all combinations of ARIs and durations and automatically group them into suitable groupings for dat_to_dat processing. There are options available via right click to duplicate entire groups with a different scenario further streamlining your modelling.
