A practical monthly optimization model, called SISOPT, is developed for the management
and operations of the Brazilian hydropower system. The system, one of the largest in the …

The curse of dimensionality and computational time cost are a great challenge to operation
of large-scale hydropower systems (LSHSs) in China because computer memory and …

This paper employs non-linear programming, genetic algorithms and fixed-length gene
genetic programming (FLGGP) for the real-time operation of a three-reservoir system …

The dimensions and significance of the modern power systems prove the necessity to
change the principles of energy generation and power supply planning and management. In …

Real-time hydropower reservoir operation is a continuous decision-making process of
determining the water level of a reservoir or the volume of water released from it. The …

The multi-reservoir systems optimization problem requires defining a set of rules to
recognize the water amount stored and released in accordance with the system constraints …

Population growth coupled with increased urban and agricultural water use have
exacerbated water shortages worldwide. Conflicts among water users frequently arise over …

The optimal operation of cascade hydropower plants is a high-dimensional, multi
constrained and nonlinear problem. In order to improve the efficiency of water resource …

A cellular automata (CA) method is proposed in this paper for the optimal operation of
hydropower multi-reservoir systems. The beginning and the end of the operation periods are …

This work examines the effectiveness of a newly-developed optimization framework for river
basin management. The proposed framework relies on the newly developed WOAPSO …
