Due to climate change, urbanization, and lack of effective water resource management, countries like Pakistan are facing difficulties coping with the increasing water demand. Rapid urbanization and non-resilient infrastructures are the key barriers in sustainable urban water resource management. Therefore, there is an urgent need to address the challenges of urban water management through effective means. We propose a workflow for the modeling and simulation of sustainable urban water resource management and develop an integrated framework for the evaluation and planning of water resources in a typical urban setting. The proposed framework uses the Water Evaluation and Planning system to evaluate current and future water demand and the supply gap. Our simulation scenarios demonstrate that the demand\u2013supply gap can effectively be dealt with by dynamic resource allocation, in the presence of assumptions, for example, those related to population and demand variation with the change of weather, and thus work as a tool for informed decisions for supply management. In the first scenario, 23% yearly water demand is reduced, while in the second scenario, no unmet demand is observed due to the 21% increase in supply delivered. Similarly, the overall demand is fulfilled through 23% decrease in water demand using water conservation. Demand-side management not only reduces the water usage in demand sites but also helps to save money, and preserve the environment. Our framework coupled with a visualization dashboard deployed in the water resource management department of a metropolitan area can assist in water planning and effective governance. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0037549720984250","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,1]],"date-time":"2021-02-01T07:21:26Z","timestamp":1612164086000},"page":"323-345","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["A Water Evaluation and Planning-based framework for the long-term prediction of urban water demand and supply"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"97","author":[{"given":"Arfa","family":"Saleem","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (SEECS), National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST), Pakistan"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0138-7510","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Imran","family":"Mahmood","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Modeling & Simulation Group, Department of Computer Science, Brunel University, UK"},{"name":"School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (SEECS), National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST), Pakistan"}]},{"given":"Hessam","family":"Sarjoughian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Arizona Center for Integrative Modeling & Simulation (ACIMS), School of Computing, Informatics, and Decision Systems Engineering, Arizona State University, USA"}]},{"given":"Hasan Arshad","family":"Nasir","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (SEECS), National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST), Pakistan"}]},{"given":"Asad Waqar","family":"Malik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (SEECS), National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST), Pakistan"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0037549720984250","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1061\/9780784414767"},{"volume-title":"Water resources sustainability","year":"2006","author":"Mays LW.","key":"bibr2-0037549720984250"},{"volume-title":"Water in crisis: a guide to the world\u2019s fresh water resources","year":"1993","author":"Shiklomanov I","key":"bibr3-0037549720984250"},{"journal-title":"The spatial characterisation of contaminant distribution found at industrial sites using combined geophysical \/ hydrogeological field studies and laboratory modelling","year":"2012","author":"Yaccup R","key":"bibr4-0037549720984250"},{"volume-title":"Groundwater resource development","year":"2013","author":"Hamill L","key":"bibr5-0037549720984250"},{"key":"bibr6-0037549720984250","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/ngeo2590"},{"key":"bibr7-0037549720984250","unstructured":"NGWA.
