Abstract

Although great progress has been made in the last 40 years, efficient operation of water reservoir systems still remains a very active research area. The combination of multiple water uses, non-linearities in the model and in the objectives, strong uncertainties in inputs and high dimensional state make the problem challenging and intriguing. The purpose of this paper is to review, in a strict Control Theory perspective, recent and significant advances in designing management policies for water reservoir networks, under economic, social and environmental constraints. A general and thorough problem formulation is provided, along with a description of traditional solution techniques, their limitations and possible alternative approaches.
