CentrEau Weekly Webinar | Redundancy in predictive hydrology: Challenges and benefits, a heuristic experiment

37th webinar of the Hebd'Eau series entitled "Redundancy in predictive hydrology: Challenges and benefits, a heuristic experiment".

Speaker:Philippe Richard, Université Laval, PhD student

Presentation: See the slideshow » (PDF, 1 088 Ko) [in French]

Language: French with French slideshow

Summary: Redundancy is a widely used tool in the fields of engineering, aviation, meteorology and computer science. It involves the duplication of components that share the same functionality. It allows to establish diagnoses and to ensure a better reliability. In predictive hydrology, redundancy is omnipresent at several levels, but it is little examined as such.

This presentation will highlight the different possible implementations of redundancy in predictive hydrology and will expose its challenges and benefits in an operational and heuristic context. 

New series of weekly CentrEau webinars "all about water management". These short 20-minute presentations will be offered live every Thursday at 1 p.m. followed by a short discussion period. CentrEau professors and researchers, as well as guest speakers, will present their research work and its importance in a semi-popularized manner. Watch the previous webinars on our YouTube Channel.
