Edge-centric Computing for Smart Water Supply: Management and Service

Abstract

The smart water supply management system targets for the efficient water supply network management, optimization, and water supply service provisioning. It is an essential component of smart city application. The smart water management system monitors the water supply network operation status via installed sensors (e.g. water pressure, flow speed, water leakage etc) in a large scale. It analyzes the potential risk in the distribution network and integrates the water supply information in a user friendly GUI. It is efficient and cost effective to detect the abnormal situations and take corresponding measurements without much human interference. The water service system provides the users many traditional and new value-added services.
