A model-based, aspiration-led methodology for multicriteria decision support has been used for the study. Several reusable, modular software tools have been developed and implemented: a problem-specific generator to produce the core part of the mathematical programming model, tools for the generation and interactive modification of multicriteria problems, and a solver for the resulting mixed-integer optimization problem. Provided in the paper are the following: a complete formulation of the mathematical model (including the imbedded water quality model), a summary of the aspiration-reservation-led multiple criteria optimization approach applied to decision support, and an overview of results that illustrate the applied approach and provide some interesting insights to the case study. date: 1996 date_type: published publisher: Wiley-Blackwell id_number: 10.1111/j.1752-1688.1996.tb04064.x iiasapubid: XJ-96-068 iiasa_bibref: Journal of the American Water Resources Association; 32(5):937-951 [1996] creators_browse_id: 193 creators_browse_id: 1584 creators_browse_id: 2501 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of the American Water Resources Association volume: 32 number: 5 pagerange: 937-951 refereed: TRUE issn: 1752-1688 coversheets_dirty: FALSE fp7_type: info:eu-repo/semantics/article citation: Makowski, M.
