“…According to Wurbs (1993), simulation is a process of representing a system with a set of mathematical equations. Several simulation models have been discussed in the state of the art review presented by Yeh (1985), Wurbs et al (1985) and Wurbs (1991). Loucks and Beek (2005) presented the capability of the simulation of model for reservoir operation.…”

“…Some authors [26,52,90,91) take advantage of the sequential decision structure of these problems and used dynamic programming for their resolution. In fact, dynamic programming decomposes the original problems into subproblems that are solved sequentially (see Labadie [45] for a detailed description of this method applied to reservoir problems).…”

The progressive technological and economic development of societies has given rise to a global increase in the demand for water. In their efforts to meet the demand for good quality water, in adequate quantities, when and where it is needed, humans have been tampering with the natural hydrological cycle. Decision models play an important role in dealing with water resources planning problems by integrating simultaneously all the relevant aspects (physical, hydrological, technological, financial, etc.) characterizing these problems. This paper presents an overview, pointing out the new trends regarding the decision models commonly used to solve the most important water systems planning problems. The achievements accomplished during these last three decades and the impacts of the improvements attained in software and hardware are highlighted. The gap between theory and practice in this field, and the reasons for such a circumstance are also discussed.

1. Purpose. This manual provides guidance to field office personnel for hydrologic engineering investigations for planning and design of reservoir projects. The manual presents typical study methods; however, the details of procedures are only presented if there are no convenient references describing the methods. Also, publications that contain the theoretical basis for the methods are referenced. Many of the computational procedures have been automated, and appropriate references are provided. Applicability.This manual applies to all HQUSACE elements and USACE commands having civil works responsibilities.
