Abstract
En 中文
A new parallel algorithm for the max-flow problem on directed networks with single-source and single -sink is proposed. The algorithm is based on tree sub-networks and on efficient parallel algorithm to compute max-flows on the tree sub-networks. The latter algorithm is proved to be work-optimal and time-optimal. The parallel implementation of the complete algorithm is more efficient than the best known parallel algorithm for the max-flow problem in terms of time-complexity and the sequential implementation of the algorithm achieves the best known sequential time-complexity, without using any complex data-structures or complex manipulations on the network.
