Abstract: The sequential irrigation scheduling problem is one where a set of irrigation jobs have to be scheduled sequentially. In this paper, an integer program is presented to solve this problem. The objective function is a dual-goal ...

Abstract: A power-law channel is a generalized form of a channel and includes parabolic and triangular cross sections. For an exponent

Abstract: A sequential irrigation schedule that honors user demands of duration and minimizes earliness and tardiness is interpreted as a single-machine schedule with earliness and tardiness costs and a common deadline (or fixed ...

Abstract: This paper shows how a sequential irrigation schedule for a tertiary unit can be interpreted as a single machine scheduling problem with earliness, tardiness, and a common deadline. An integer program solution is presented ...

Abstract: In preparing water allocation schedules for fields in a lateral unit, the time required for water to travel from one point on a lateral to another can be significant and is dependent on the sequence in which users abstract ...

Abstract: Irrigation schedules are used in many irrigation schemes that operate on a rotational or arranged-demand basis. Determining these schedules is a complex problem, especially when done by hand. Operations research tools such ...

Abstract: For many large irrigation systems, distributing water equitably is a stated management objective. Canal operations plans specify which canal to operate at what discharge for each irrigation interval to achieve the stated ...
