The Zambezi river case study ispublished: pub abstract: The paper presents the basic concepts of an interactive PC-AT based software package IRIS for simulation analysis of various development planning and management policy options in large river systems. IRIS package together with multiobjective optimization was used to analyse problems of hydropower generation and operation of reservoirs in the Zambezi river basin. Problems of water management in the basin were discussed and approaches to solve formulated decision problem presented. Combined use of optimization and simulation techniques is discussed: proposed optimal solution of the problem was analysed in the framework of IRIS to detect the impact of modification of this solution on the system's performances, including secondary objectives. Finally, conclusions on the applicability of IRIS package are drawn. date: 1990-08 date_type: published publisher: IFAC official_url: http://www.ifac-control.org/about/symposia-conferences-and-workshops creators_browse_id: 2350 creators_browse_id: 1894 creators_browse_id: 2138 full_text_status: none series: Proceedings of the 11th Triennial World Congress of the International Federation of Automatic Control volume: 5 place_of_pub: Tallinn, USSR pagerange: 535-541 refereed: TRUE book_title: IFAC Symposia Series - Proceedings of a Triennial World Congress coversheets_dirty: FALSE fp7_project: no fp7_type: info:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart citation: Salewicz, K. , Gandolfi, C. , & Loucks, D.
