Description
The Quickest Transshipment Problem is to route flow as quickly as possible from sources with supplies to sinks with demands in a network with capacities and transit times on the arcs. It is of fundamental importance for numerous applications in areas such as logistics, traffic, evacuation, and finance. This project aims at a better structural understanding of quickest transshipments leading to practically efficient algorithms that can find optimal or near-optimal solutions in large-scale traffic networks. The main mathematical challenge is to find more efficient ways to deal with the underlying submodular functions whose repeated minimization constitutes the main bottleneck of known algorithmic approaches.
