Description
Summary:This paper reviews current optimization technique developed to solve reservoir operation problems in water resources. The application of conventional, especially evolutionary computation, combination of simulation-optimization and multi objectives optimization in reservoir operation will be discussed and investigated. Furthermore, new optimization algorithm from other applications will be presented by focusing on Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) and Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA) as alternative methods that can be explored by researchers in water resources field. Finally this paper looks into the challenges and issues of climate change in reservoir optimization.
