"In the current context of the existence of life, of the development of human activities, water has a double importance:- environmental factor, generator of ecological systems- “raw material” for certain uses (drinking water, industrial water, fish farming, leisure, etc.) The current problems in the field of water supply are due to:- exponential increase of water demand;- the limited water resources and their uneven distribution, which requires large and expensive works of development and accumulation of water;- deterioration of the quality of water sources, as a result of human activity and the emergence of industries that discharge waste, containing very stable impurities, difficult to remove from water, in the processes of water purification or treatment;- increase in standards on quality conditions that must be met by water delivered to the population [1]. For the extensive and intensive development of water supplies, a concrete solution, already existing in the area of Artificial Intelligence is given by heuristic methods and Evolutionary Calculus. This article provides an overview of the role of the most important metaheuristics, based on evolutionary concepts - Evolutionary computation and behavioral patterns inspired by biology - Swarm calculus) in the case of of water supply systems and their subsystems, with exemplification in the case of a model network (Scheme of the network distribution in Hanoi), taking into account water quality (its treatment with chlorine)."
