Like a Porsche racing a horse-drawn carriage The ETH Zurich researchers have thus developed what is, in theory, the fastest possible network flow algorithm.

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 ...

Introduction to mathematical optimization and its applications, linear optimization models, Simplex Algorithm, sensitivity analysis, mixed-integer optimization models, branch-and-bound algorithm, ...

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 ...

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 ...

The model is optimized using a minimum cost network flow algorithm. A graphic user interface allows deployment parameters to be quickly modified so the impacts of changes on the time to close can be ...

We further give a linear characterization of the core of this subclass of games, which is then used to provide a more explicit representation of the nucleolus and to construct a strongly polynomial ...
