The aim of having control is the hydraulic optimisation of the network, i.e., ensuring the desired pressure in its recipient nodes, and minimising energy costs of network operation. These two tasks belong to the key issues related to the management and operation of water supply networks, apart from the reduction in water losses caused by network failures and ensuring proper water quality. The presented algorithms have been implemented in an Information and Communications Technology (ICT) system developed at the Systems Research Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IBS PAN) and implemented in the waterworks GPW S.A. in Katowice\/Poland.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e22091014","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,9,11]],"date-time":"2020-09-11T09:05:16Z","timestamp":1599815116000},"page":"1014","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Control of Pumps of Water Supply Network under Hydraulic and Energy Optimisation Using Artificial Intelligence"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"Jan","family":"Studzi\u0144ski","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Systems Research Institute of Polish Academy of Sciences, Pl 01-447 Warsaw, Poland"}]},{"given":"Andrzej","family":"Zi\u00f3\u0142kowski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Systems Research Institute of Polish Academy of Sciences, Pl 01-447 Warsaw, Poland"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,9,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Wittmann, J.
