Abstract

The algorithm presented in this paper solves the minimum flow problem for a special parametric bipartite network. The algorithm does not work directly in the original network but in the parametric residual network and finds a particular state of the residual network from which the minimum flow and the maximum cut for any of the parameter values are obtained. The approach implements a round-robin algorithm looping over a list of nodes until an entire pass ends without any change of the flow.
