Remote Model Launch |
|
The product uses a combination of Windows NT service and a model server to provide this new capability. |
Remote Model Launch Summary |
RMLServer uses an NT Service, which enables models to be run on remote computers regardless of whether anyone has logged onto them. The service is started automatically when the computer is turned on.
Models run via the Remote Model Launch interface function as separate Windows processes even if the model is run on the same computer as Groundwater Vistas. This enables the operating system to make better use of multiple processor computers. In addition, a greater level of response is provided to the Groundwater Vistas user when models are running. As implemented, each model opened up in Groundwater Vistas can be run simultaneously. It enables the modeller to tap the power of many computers on the network. These days, computers are much more powerful than the typical user requires and having a model running in the background would not significantly impact most users. Using this technology, you can improve your productivity without purchasing a faster computer.

| Remote Model Launch Requirements |
Remote Launch requires Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4 or above, which includes Windows 2000 and XP. In order to successfully run a model on the remote computer, you must have access to the hard disk on the remote computer or on a server. In some cases there are network security issues that must be addressed on the remote computer, depending on how restrictive the default security is on the network. The RMLServer license is administrated by either a Remote Launch security block (dongle) or a Groundwater Vistas security block.
