Abstract
This chapter begins with a discussion on linking science, policy, and management decisions with the decision support system (DSS). The DSS and its components are described, in which the heart of DSS are the models or modeling tools. Then, the distinction between optimization and simulation models as well as elements and features of these two types of models are presented. Sample optimization-simulation modeling problems are also presented to illustrate how different water resources planning, design, and management problem can be addressed. This chapter ends with a listing and brief background of the modeling studies and experiences presented in Chapters 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11.
