Abstract

Given an acyclic directed graph and two distinct nodes sand t, we consider the problem of finding kdisjoint paths from sto tsatisfying some objective. We consider four objectives, MinMax, Balanced, MinSum-MinMinand MinSum-MinMax. We use the algorithm by Perl-Shiloach and labelling and scaling techniques to devise an FPTAS for the first three objectives. For the forth one, we propose a general and efficient polynomial-time algorithm.
