| Abstract: | Abstract Ranking of river basin planning and development alternatives under a multi-criterion environment, including both qualitative and quantitative aspects, is examined. The purpose is to find the most suitable planning for reservoirs with their associated purposes aimed at the development of the major peninsular river (Krishna) basin in India. A total of seven reservoirs and a diversion network are considered for the formulation of 24 alternative systems with 18 criteria, of which nine are qualitative and the remainder are quantitative in nature. A set of best alternatives with their ordering is obtained using ELECTRE (ELimination Et (and) Choice Translating REality). |
