WRSS: An Object-Oriented R Package for Large-Scale Water Resources Operation

Water resources systems, as facilities for storing water and supplying demands, have been critically important due to their operational requirements. This paper presents the applications of an R package in a large-scale water resources operation. The <i>WRSS</i> (Water Resources System S...
