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

Kyng's algorithm can be applied in such cases to calculate the optimal, lowest-cost traffic flow for any kind of network—be it rail, road, water or the internet.

Jul 14, 2024 23:40:00 An algorithm that can calculate the maximum transport flow at the lowest cost and the fastest speed for all kinds of networks such as railroads, roads, and electricity has ...

A class of high-resolution algorithms is developed for advection of a scalar quantity in a given incompressible flow field in one, two, or three space dimensions. Multidimensional transport is modeled ...

We introduce the pseudoflow algorithm for the maximum-flow problem that employs only pseudoflows and does not generate flows explicitly. The algorithm solves directly a problem equivalent to the ...

D-Wave is a company that makes quantum annealers, specialized hardware that is most effective when applied to a class of optimization problems.

This algorithm solves the minimum-cost maximum-flow problem for networks that incrementally change as new connections are added. Furthermore, in a second paper accepted by the IEEE Symposium on ...
