Within the framework of an information system for water management, data analysis represents one of the main activities. Use of mathematical models for complex analyses is quite common practice in the developed countries today. Proper transfer of modelling knowledge to developing countries is not straightforward. In this article expertise in using different techniques for a single multipurpose reservoir analysis has been reviewed and rationalized for the development of an intelligent decision support system (Simonovic and Savic, 1989). Using new computer‐based technology, known as expert systems, the effort has been made to ease the knowledge transfer between the reservoir experts and less experienced users. The result of the work is contained in the computer tool named REZES, which is aimed at assisting the less experienced user in performing single multipurpose reservoir analysis. The emphasis of the article is on reservoir expertise and the process to rationalize it.
