Abstract
We study the implementation of two fundamentally different algorithms for solving the maximum flow problem: Dinic's method and the network simplex method. For the former, we present the design of a storage-efficient implementation. For the latter, we develop a "steepest-edge" pivot selection criterion that is easy to include in an existing network simplex implementation. We compare the computational efficiency of these two methods on a personal computer with a set of generated problems of up to 4 600 nodes and 27 000 arcs.
