A variety of optimization and simulation models are now com-

monly used to help water resource planners and managers

identify, evaluate and predict themultiple impacts from va-

rious actions or decisions one can make regarding the deve-

lopment and management of a region's water resources. Cur-

rent developments in computer technology are making it pos-

sible to link these models to programs that provide an in-

terface betwe- en the decision maker and their models and

compu- ters. The volume discusses how these so-called deci-

sion support systems can be best developed and used bythose

involved in water resources planning and management.
