Abstract
Nowadays, potable water supply has become a problem, involving different aspects such as water quality, pollution, pipes' quality, supply and demand of drinking water, water leaks, and supply cuts, among other aspects that have complicated the efficient use of potable water in urbanized regions. The objective of this chapter is to define potable water distribution network (PWDN) optimization as a complex problem, from the perspective of an NP-Hard problem, and the complexity as a variant of water distribution network optimization. The main result of the proposal is the definition of a problem that identifies the main variables involved in the supply of quality potable water as a global problem where each researcher can solve the main problem as one or propose solutions for different parts. The proposal simulation is oriented to present a brief solution related to the supply and demand of drinking water as a part of the PWDN.
