Extensible Architecture
Aurora is developed in Microsoft Visual Basic.net. It uses a “memory-based architecture” with a leading edge graphic user interface designed with energy modelers in mind.
-
The Aurora interface is easy to navigate and the learning curve is very short.
-
Input assumptions can reside in the Aurora input database, or linked from SQL Server or Microsoft Excel workbooks, and can be manipulated using the endogenous Computational Datasets. These options offer easy access and the ability to readily manage data.
-
Aurora's Simulation Options and logic settings enable you to quickly specify relevant modeling elements.
-
The memory-based architecture (shown below) enables you to perform analysis, readily modify assumptions, view data and hourly results on the fly, and automatically modify data. Also, you can view the input, output, memory tables in their desired formats with user-created Quick Views.
