This document is intended for SNL users who need to jumpstart their use of Janus and Janus-s.

This report describes a capacity planning project for Engineering Information Management (EIM) systems at Sandia National Laboratories. The purpose was to develop a method for predicting the ability of current hardware computer systems to meet future demands and to address the magnitude of required upgrades. Specific activities included the generation and analysis of alternatives, the selection of analytic modeling as the appropriate vehicle, construction and validation of the model, and the development of recommendations.
