Abstract

Ford-Fulkerson algorithm is widely used to solve maximum Graph-Flow problems and it can be applied to a range of different areas, including networking. This project proposes an approach based on Ford-Fulkerson algorithm to maximize the flow of computer network. Such method mitigates congestion problems and increases network utilization. In order to show the applicability of the proposed approach, this project presents the analysis of network scenarios.
