Computer scientists have written a network flow algorithm that computes almost as fast as is mathematically possible. This algorithm computes the maximum traffic flow with minimum transport costs ...

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 much material can flow through a ...

Researchers have devised an "absurdly fast" algorithm to solve the problem of finding the fastest flow through a network.

With Kin's algorithm, all important network flow problems, including maximum flow and minimum cost problems, can now be treated as special cases of the minimum cost flow problem.

Produced as part of the Work Package 8 of the PRACE 1IP Project, the most recent paper is entitled: Experiences with Parallel Multi-threaded Network Maximum Flow Algorithm. The problem of computing ...

Algorithm promises to greatly streamline solutions to the 'max flow' problem.

The maximum-flow problem, or max flow, is one of the most basic problems in computer science. MIT researchers, together with colleagues at Yale and the University of Southern California, have ...

We present the results of a computational investigation of the pseudoflow and push-relabel algorithms for the maximum flow and minimum s-t cut problems. The two algorithms were tested on several ...

This algorithm solves the minimum-cost maximum-flow problem for networks that incrementally change as new connections are added.

Rasmus Kyng has written the near-perfect algorithm. It computes the maximum transport flow at minimum cost for any kind of network – be it rail, road or electricity – at a speed that is, ...
