In his book The Master Algorithm, Pedro Domingos offers a masterfully simple definition: “An algorithm is,” Domingos writes, “a sequence of instructions telling a computer what to do.” ...

Their algorithm efficiently solves the maximum-flow problem, which seeks to determine how to transport as many goods through a network as possible without exceeding the capacity of the individual ...

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

This paper presents two new scaling algorithms for the minimum cost network flow problem, one a primal cycle canceling algorithm, the other a dual cut canceling algorithm. Both algorithms scale a ...

In this paper the issues of implementing shortest path algorithms in this context are examined. Of particular interest is the dynamic topology that the flow networks exhibit. We develop a network ...

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, ...
