A Heuristic Evolutionary Game Theoretic Methodology for Conjunctive Use of Surface and Groundwater Resources

The game theory can be applied for modeling the natural process of decision making among dischargers under the condition of having just one water quality checkpoint in a river reach which receives pollution loads of several dischargers who would be penalized for any water quality violation from the standards. In this paper, a new methodology called N-person Bayesian Static Game is proposed for river quality management which is capable of incorporating the existing uncertainties in pollution loads of dischargers. This methodology can provide the Nash-Bays Equilibrium (BNE) of waste load allocation strategies. The practical utility of the developed methodology is investigated by applying it to a reach of the Zarjub River in north of Iran. This reach includes three pollution load dischargers.

This problem would be more complex when objectives related to surface and groundwater quality are taken into account. In this paper, a new methodology is developed for real time conjunctive use of surface and groundwater resources. In the proposed methodology, a well-known multi-objective genetic algorithm, namely Nondominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II) is employed to develop a Pareto front among the objectives. The Young conflict resolution theory is also used for resolving the conflict of interests among decision makers.

Assessment of Industrial Solid Waste Using the Intelligent Decison System (IDS) Method

There are more often than not diverse criteria for assessing the resulted pollution loads from solid waste disposal. In this paper, a new application for the Intelligent Decision System (IDS) is demonstrated for industrial solid waste assessment. IDS software is a Windows-based package for handling Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) problems considering both qualitative and quantitative criteria under uncertainties. The basis of IDS is a recently developed theory named the Evidential Reasoning (ER) approach. The major features, superiority and excellence of IDS will be clarified through its application to the ranking of the industrial units located in the Khuzestan Province. Moreover, as a complimentary assessment, a sensitivity analysis is carried out in which the effect of decision maker’s attitude toward risk on ...
