摘要
The availalability. use, development, and management of water resources are receivingincreasing attentioll worldwide. As demands for water continues to grow and the resources continue todwindle or at best remain constant at some level, it has become increasingly necessary to develop moreand more methods for the managaement of this scarce resource especially in arid and semiarid regions.The necessity of integrated planning and management of the basin arises because of insufficient anderratic nature of the rainfall. The purpose of this paper is to determine the optimal operation policy ofthe water resources for the river basins to meet the multi-objective demands of water requirements. Anoptimization approach has been developed to aid decision making in the real time allocation of waterwithin t he context of a large-scale, multi-objective, complex river system. The optimization approach isbased on the Progressive Optimality Algorithm, Golden Search techniqlle, and the ε-constraint method.As a case study, the present methodology is applied to the Yellow River Reservoir system in China andpresented in a companion paper in this issue.
