Abstract
Considers the design of a decision support system for the short term water resource management of an irrigation system. The operations of similar systems are often impaired by different stochastic events like device failure, heavy rains or dry periods and new long term goals. To be effective, such a decision support system which is based on knowledge techniques (state identification) and adaptive optimization (short term plans), requires the development of an information system based on water resource demand and supply. This information system gathers data from different fields (hydrology, meteorology and agriculture) so that accurate predictions about available reserves and demand levels can be performed. So, this communication presents the structure of the decision support system and focuses on tactical management information needs. The case study considered deals with a three-reach irrigation system.
