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.

The new algorithm is “absurdly fast,” said Daniel Spielman of Yale University. “I was actually inclined to believe … algorithms this good for this problem would not exist.” Maximum flow has been ...

Fulkerson and Ford's algorithm proved effective enough, but it often didn't produce the best possible flow: If other routes were cut off and suboptimal jams emerged, so be it. The subsequent 70 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Algorithm promises to greatly streamline solutions to the 'max flow' problem. Research could boost the efficiency even of huge networks like the Internet. Finding the most efficient way to ...

Eliminating unexplained traffic jams: New algorithm to alleviate traffic flow instabilities Date: October 28, 2013 Source: Massachusetts Institute of Technology Summary: If integrated into ...

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 ...
