The origin of numerous significant algorithmic developments such as the simplex method, graph sparsification, and link-cut trees can be traced back to seeking faster algorithms for maximum flow and ...

Just like results for electrical flows have accelerated the search for scalable maximum-flow algorithms, this work will expedite research on other fundamental problems, including developing almost ...

The partitioning type approach, which is presented in this paper, proposes an original algorithm for computing the maximum flow in networks with constant lower bounds and linear upper bound functions.

Abstract: A minimum cost maximum flow algorithm is proposed ... workloads and flows variations. The algorithm is compared to an exact method generalizing the classical Bin-Packing formulation using a ...

Computer scientists have written a network flow ... linear-time algorithm at the Annual ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing (STOC) in Vancouver. This algorithm solves the minimum-cost maximum ...

A team of computer scientists has come up with a dramatically faster algorithm for one of the oldest problems in computer science: maximum flow. The problem asks how ... solves these two problems in ...

This module introduces the basics of linear programs and shows how some algorithm problems (such as the network flow problem) can be posed as a linear program. We will provide ... vertex cover problem ...
