In a breakthrough that brings to mind Lucky Luke—the man who shoots faster than his shadow—Rasmus Kyng and his team have developed a superfast algorithm that looks set to transform an entire field of ...

Mathematics of Operations Research, Vol. 18, No. 1 (Feb., 1993), pp. 71-97 (27 pages) This paper is concerned with the design and probabilistic analysis of algorithms for the maximum-flow problem and ...

Networks are systems comprised of two or more connected devices, biological organisms or other components, which typically ...

Many important problems can be modeled as dynamic (time-expanded) network flow problems. For example, in building evacuation we might use twenty nodes to represent a room at 3 minute intervals over an ...

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 ...

This is the third of a series of four newsletters where we’re sharing excerpts from the Webtorials Thought Leadership Discussion on WAN Virtualization. This series features a “virtual discussion” with ...

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 for ...
