1988
[Proceedings 1988] 29th Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science
In this paper we present the first polynomial time combinatorial algorithms for this problem. The algorithms are simple and intuitive. ...
The goal is to maximize the amount of flow excess at the source. This problem is a special case of linear programming, and therefore can be solved in polynomial time. ...
Acknowledgment We would like to thank Bob Tarjan for allowing us to include his observation that improved the running time of the Fat-Path algorithm. ...
