The number and topics of the papers in the SI confirm the growing interest of operators and researchers for the new paradigm of smart networks, as part of the more general smart city. The SI showed that digital information and communication technology (ICT), with the implementation of smart meters and other digital devices, can significantly improve the modelling and the management of urban water networks, contributing to a radical transformation of the traditional paradigm of water utilities. The paper collection in this SI includes different crucial topics such as the reliability, resilience, and performance of water networks, innovative demand management, and the novel challenge of real-time control and operation, along with their implications for cyber-security. The SI collected fourteen papers that provide a wide perspective of solutions, trends, and challenges in the contest of smart urban water networks. Some solutions have already been implemented in pilot sites (i.e., for water network partitioning, cyber-security, and water demand disaggregation and forecasting), while further investigations are required for other methods, e.g., the data-driven approaches for real time control. In all cases, a new deal between academia, industry, and governments must be embraced to start the new era of smart urban water systems.Technology: general issuesbicsscagent-based modelingblind sources separationchaotic time seriescluster analysisclusteringcomparative analysiscross-correlationcyber wellnesscyber-attack detectioncyber-physical attackscyber-physical securitycyber-securitydata analyticsdata resolutiondata sciencedata spatial aggregationdecentralized water supplyDEMATELdistrict metered areadual reticulationentropyerror correctionFastICAfault identificationfinite population effectflooding detectionframeworkhybrid modelhydraulic measurehydraulic modellinghydraulic transientInternet of Thingsinverse transient analysis (ITA)leakageleast square support vector machinemachine learningmeteringmulti-criteria decision analysis (MCDA)multi-criteria decision-makingn/anetwork sectorizationnitratenitriteoptimal sensor placementoptimization approachpressure control valvepressure managementrainwater harvestingreliability indexremote real-time controlsample meansampling designsensitivitysmart citysmart metersmart stormwatersmart water systemsmart water systemssmartnessstandard errorstochastic analysisstochastic consumptiontopological centralityuncertaintyurban water consumptionurban water managementwater data accessibilitywater demand datawater demand forecastingwater demand peak factorwater distribution monitoringwater distribution networkwater distribution network (WDN)water distribution networkswater distribution systemwater distribution systemswater network partitioningwater quality monitoringwater tradingwater treatment plantwireless sensor networksTechnology: general issuesCreaco Enricoedt1281245Di Nardo ArmandoedtBoccelli Dominic LedtHerrera ManueledtCominola AndreaedtTaormina RiccardoedtSitzenfrei RobertedtCreaco EnricoothDi Nardo ArmandoothBoccelli Dominic LothHerrera ManuelothCominola AndreaothTaormina RiccardoothSitzenfrei RobertothBOOK9910557333303321Smart Urban Water Networks3035238UNINA
