This tutorial focuses on demonstrating various Scenario and Event management options. In TUFLOW terminology:
* Scenario = A topographic or model configuration feature. <br>
:(ege.g. existing catchment topography, development scenario topography, cell size etc.)<br>
* Event = An input associated with a forcing boundary condition. Examples include: <br>
:* Event magnitude: (ege.g. 10, 20, 50, 100 year ARI etc.) <br>
:* Storm duration (ege.g. 1,2,3,6,12, 24, 36 hours etc.) <br>
:* Design storm temporal pattern (ege.g. Australian Rainfall and Runoff 1 to 10)<br>
:* Tail water condition (ege.g. high tide, low tide, storm tide, climate change etc.) <br>
In previous tutorials, new TUFLOW Control File (TCF), TUFLOW Geometry Control (TGC) file and ESTRY Control Files (ECF) were required each time a different model scenario or event was modelled. During complex modelling projects this has the potential to result in a large number of input files. This can become a project management challenge. TUFLOW incorporates scenario and event control logic to overcome these challenges, significantly reducing the number of simulation files required during a complex project. The figure below shows a project requiring over 30 simulations consolidated into a single TCF file.<br>

The Variable can be used in any TUFLOW control file. The variable is called by bounding the variable name within "<<" and ">>" characters. <br>
''Tip: if you find that your Set Variables are becoming a large part of your TUFLOW control files, it can be beneficial to collate the variables within a TUFLOW <font color="blue"><tt>Read File</tt></font>. Refer to the <u>[https://docs.tuflow.com/classic-hpc/manual/latest/ TUFLOW manualManual]</u> for more details.''

This section introduces how to run the model using TUFLOW’s HPC (Heavily Parallelised Compute) solver with scenario control. It is much more convenient to select the model solver using scenario control than how it was done in other tutorials, because you only need to create one .tcf file for both the HPC and/or Classic simulations.
 
Please see [[HPC_Features_Archive | HPC Features Archive]] for more information on TUFLOW HPC features supported in the 2017 release.

==Results==
Using the methods described above in the <u>[[Tutorial_Module01_Archive#Viewing_Results | Viewing Results]]</u> section of Module 1.
* Check the simulation logs in the DOSconsole window, .tlf and .hpc.tlf log files.
* View the results in your preferred package.
Do the logs and results appear different to the TUFLOW Classic simulation?
