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

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

To tackle the problem, researchers have traditionally used a maximum-flow algorithm, also known as “max flow,” in which a network is represented as a graph with a series of nodes, known as ...

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.

A simple network-flow algorithm is described for solving a class of problems, with various applications, including that of project selection. The algorithm should have wide appeal since no prior ...

The European PRACE organization has published a series of excellent whitepapers on scalable algorithms. Produced as part of the Work Package 8 of the PRACE 1IP Project, the most recent paper is ...
