Researchers from MIT, Yale University, and the University of Southern California have developed what they are labeling the "fastest known algorithm" for solving the problem of "maximum flow." The max ...

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 ...

Any time you hang a fresh set of pipes beneath your floorboards, it's a very good day. Foreshadowing the burbly flow of cackling hydrocarbons that's about to ensue, it's a welcome sign that your ...

Determine forces on the valve spool to optimize solenoid size. Designers of spool-type, solenoid-operated hydraulic valves often face the vexing problem of increasing flow while shrinking the size of ...

The European PRACE organization has published a series of excellent whitepapers on scalable algorithms. Produced as part of the Work Package 8 of the PRACE 1IP Project, the most recent paper is ...
