A primal algorithm for solving a capacitated network flow problem with additional linear constraints
Stephen Chen,Romesh Saigal +1 more
TL;DR: A variant of the revised simplex method is given for solving capacitated network flow problems with additional linear constraints for pivoting, pricing, and inversion that can result in a substantial reduction of computation over a standard linear programming approach.

On building minimum cost communication networks over time
TL;DR: It is observed that for a large subclass of practical problems, the dynamic problem of building a network over time may be converted to a static problem for most of the computations, which suggests a strong similarity between the optimal solutions to both problems.
