Preface
Hydroinformatics defined as management of information related to the water sector using ICT tools is a large domain of engineering technology and sciences. Modelling and simulation are historically the points of departure for hydroinformatics and are one of the most important part of it. Neither the SimHydro cycle of international conferences nor the present book has the purpose or ambition to cover thematically the whole extent of the subjects. The purpose is to concentrate on a limited number of specific areas and subjects which are not usually considered as such during most global international conferences. Modelling in fluid mechanics, hydraulics and hydrology, whether using digital tools or scale models, has reached sufficient maturity to be in daily use by engineers for analysis, design and for communication. Increasingly, complex cases can be handled thanks to ever-more sophisticated tools and increasingly abundant computing power. The emerging environment populated w
