Network flow

  • Define and use network flow terminology including sourcesinkoutflowinflow and cut
  • Convert information presented in a table to a weighted and directed network diagram
  • Calculate and analyse the flow capacity of a network including the use of the saturated edges method
  • Solve small-scale network flow problems including the use of applying the maximum-flow minimum-cut theorem
  • Examine the impact of increasing or reducing the flow capacity of an edge in a network diagram
  • Explain why the flow capacity of a network is or is not sufficient to meet demand in a variety of contexts
