Abstract: A three‐step modeling approach is presented for comprehensive analysis of the planning problem involving integrated use of surface and ground water in irrigation. Applicability of the approach is illustrated by a case study ...

Abstract: This paper presents and compares four types of stochastic dynamic programming (SDP) for on‐line reservoir operation, relying on observed or forecasted inflows. The models are different because of the assumptions regarding ...

Abstract: An integrated approach combining deterministic dynamic programming and simulation models has been developed and applied to determine the optimal operation policy and performance of a mixed hydro‐thermal power system ...
