In this paper, two cooperative and non-cooperative methodologies are developed for a large-scale water allocation problem in Southern Iran. The water shares of the water users and their net benefits are determined using optimization models having economic objectives with respect to the physical and environmental constraints of the system. The results of the two methodologies are compared based on the total obtained economic benefit, and the role of cooperation in utilizing a shared water resource is demonstrated. In both cases, the water quality in rivers satisfies the standards. Comparing the results of the two mentioned approaches shows the importance of acting cooperatively to achieve maximum revenue in utilizing a surface water resource while the river water quantity and quality issues are addressed.
本文为伊朗南部的一个大规模水资源分配问题开发了两种合作和非合作的方法。利用具有经济目标的优化模型，根据系统的物理和环境约束条件，确定了用水户的水份额及其净效益。根据总经济效益比较了两种方法的结果，并展示了合作在利用共享水资源方面的作用。在这两种情况下，河流的水质都符合标准。比较这两种方法的结果表明，在解决河流水量和水质问题的同时，合作对于利用地表水获得最大收益非常重要。
