On the Fixed Cost k-Flow Problem and related problems
In the Fixed Cost k-Flow problem, we are given a graph G = (V,E) with edge-capacities {ue | e ∈ E} and edge-costs {ce | e ∈ E}, source-sink pair s, t ∈ V , and an integer k. The goal is to find a minimum cost subgraph H of G such that the minimum capacity of an st-cut in H is at least k. We show that the Group Steiner on Trees problem is a special case of Fixed Cost k-Flow. This implies the fir...
متن کاملOn Minimum Concave Cost Network Flow Problems
Minimum concave Cost Network Flow Problems (MCNFPs) arise naturally in many practical applications such as communication, transportation, distribution, and manufacturing, due to economic considerations. In addition, it has been shown that every MCNFP with general nonlinear cost functions can be transformed into a concave MCNFP on an expanded network. It must also be noted, that multiple source ...
متن کاملAdaptive dynamic cost updating procedure for solving fixed charge network flow problems
We approximate the objective function of the fixed charge network flow problem (FCNF) by a piecewise linear one, and construct a concave piecewise linear network flow problem (CPLNF). A proper choice of parameters in the CPLNF problem guarantees the equivalence between those two problems. We propose a heuristic algorithm for solving the FCNF problem, which requires solving a sequence of CPLNF p...
متن کاملA Note on Minimax Inverse Generalized Minimum Cost Flow Problems
Given a generalized network and a generalized feasible flow f, we consider a problem finding a modified edge cost d such that f is minimum cost with respect to d and the maximum deviation between the original edge cost and d is minimum. This paper shows the relationship between this problem and minimum mean circuit problems and analyze a binary search algorithm for this problem.
متن کاملFixed Transmission Cost Allocation Using Power Flow Tracing Methods
In the open access restructured power system market, it is necessary to develop an appropriate pricing scheme that can provide the useful economic information to market participants, such as generation, transmission companies and customers. Though many methods have already been proposed, but accurately estimating and allocating the transmission cost in the transmission pricing scheme is still a...
