N1 - Funding Information:
The work was part of a preliminary multipurpose study of the Rio Negro basin, in Southern Argentina, carried on by a consortium of Argentine firms. The client was the National Agency for Irrigation and Hydropower (Agua y Energia Elrctrica S.E.) and the global project was financed by an international loan.

N2 - This paper describes an integrated mathematical model, Oper, for use in the analysis and planning of multipurpose water resources systems. A typical system consists of reservoirs, hydropower stations, irrigated land, artificial and navigation channels, etc., over a reach of a river or a river basin. The model takes into account the hydrological, technical, sociopolitical and economic constraints that must be considered by planners and decision makers. The global model is composed of three different models: a preliminary design is obtained by means of the linear programming model Oper1; the corresponding hydrological and economic performances are tested through the simulation model Oper2; the optimal sequence of investments during the planning horizon is completed with the mixed integer programming model Oper4. The model has been implemented on a minicomputer and applied by the authors to the design of the water resources system on the Rio Negro basin, Argentina.
