  "abstract": "<p>Management of water resources has become a major challenge in recent years. Reservoir<br>\noperation is designed based on the interrelated hydrological, physical, and operational<br>\nparameters that have direct and indirect relation on the water resource activity to the<br>\ndownstream of the reservoir.<br>\nIn the next 30 years, water use will increase by 50% in the world. By 2025, about 4 billion<br>\npeople will live under conditions of severe water stress (Gourbesvivelli, 2008).<br>\nTherefore, development of priority water infrastructures and improvements of water<br>\nmanagement have essential and complementary roles in contributing to sustainable<br>\ngrowth and poverty reduction in developing countries like Ethiopia. One way of improving<br>\nwater management is through increasing efficiency of dam reservoirs. Increasing the<br>\nefficiency reservoir by using optimal reservoir operation is among the solutions for improvement<br>\nof hydropower generation.</p>",
