Minimum cost capacity installation for multicommodity network flows
Consider a directed graph G = (V;A), and a set of tra c demands to be shipped between pairs of nodes in V. Capacity has to be installed on the edges of this graph (in integer mult...

Solving the Capacitated Local Access Network Design Problem
We propose an exact solution method for a routing and capacity installation problem in networks. Given an input graph, the problem is to route traffic from a set of source nodes t...

Multicommodity Demand Flow in a Tree
We consider requests for capacity in a given tree network T = (V, E) where each edge of the tree has some integer capacity ue. Each request consists of an integer demand df and a ...

A Constant-Factor Approximation Algorithm for the Multicommodity
We present the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for network design with multiple commodities and economies of scale. We consider the rent-or-buy problem, a type of m...

An O(log k) Approximate Min-Cut Max-Flow Theorem and Approximation Algorithm
It is shown that the minimum cut ratio is within a factor of O(log k) of the maximum concurrent flow for k-commodity flow instances with arbitrary capacities and demands. This im...
