The problems of water quality sensors and actuators placement in drinking water distribution systems (DWDSs) are addressed as separate, primarily. However, against the background of control systems theory, the nature of DWDSs dynamics indicates that these both problems are interdependent and impact the design of related water quality monitoring and control structures and algorithms. The research work presented in this paper is to investigate the state-of-the-art in this field and discuss the problems of water quality sensors and actuators placement within DWDS and to highlight the potential benefits of considering the joint task of their allocation. |
