This book aims at stimulating discussion between researchers
working on state of the art approaches for operational control and
design of transport of water on the one hand and researchers
working on state of the art approaches for transport over water on
the other hand. The main contribution of the book as a whole is to
present novel perspectives ultimately leading to the management of
an envisioned unified management framework taking the recent
advances from both worlds as a baseline. The book is intended to be
a reference for control-oriented engineers who manage water systems
with either or both purposes in mind (transport of water, transport
of goods over water). It highlights the possible twofold nature of
water projects, where water either acts as primary object of study
or as a means. The book is dedicated to comparing and relating to
one another different strategies for (operational) management and
control of different but strongly related systems in the framework
of the water. In that sense, the book presents different approaches
treating both the transport of water and transport over water. It
compares the different approaches within the same field,
highlighting their distinguishing features and advantages according
to selected qualitative indices, and demonstrates the interaction
and cross-relations between both fields. It will also help to
determine the gaps and common points for both fields towards the
design of such a unifying framework, which is lacking in the
literature. Additionally, the book looks at case studies where the
design of modeling/control strategies of either transport of water
or transport over water have been proposed, discussed or simulated.
