Water demand management (WDM) is crucial for ensuring sustainable water supply and

addressing the challenges posed by increasing urbanization and climate change. This

literature review synthesizes recent research findings related to water demand

management, focusing on the performance of existing water reservoirs, total water

demand assessment, and the evaluation of local policies and management practices.

Performance Assessment of Existing Water Reservoirs

Azad et al. (2022), state that predicting reservoir water levels (RWL) has become

increasingly challenging due to the complex physical processes involved and the spatio-

temporal variations in climatic conditions. The Red Hills Reservoir (RHR), a vital source

of drinking and irrigation water in Thiruvallur district, Tamil Nadu, India, is also

anticipated to serve additional productive purposes in the future. However, climate

change in the region may impact the reservoir's long-term viability. Therefore, accurate

and reliable RWL predictions are essential for designing an effective water release

strategy to meet the population's water needs.

Reservoirs play a crucial role as effective structural solutions for managing the spatial

and temporal distribution of water. In addition to supplying water for consumption,

hydroelectric power generation, and irrigation, they also help mitigate floods and

droughts by regulating excessive inflows. However, optimizing reservoir operations is

highly complex, requiring a series of strategic decisions to control water storage and

release over time (Azad et al., 2022).

According to Guo et al. (2021), streamflow forecasting has long been a valuable tool for

managing water scarcity and flood protection. This study introduced an AI-driven

management approach that combines multi-step streamflow predictions with multi-

objective reservoir operation optimization to enhance water resource allocation. The


methodology focused on evaluating both the accuracy of forecasts and the

effectiveness of reservoir operations informed by these predictions, considering the

impact of inflow forecast uncertainty.
