Their contributions include finding a necessary and sufficient condition for the connected p-median problem on block graphs, developing algorithms and showing that these problems can be solved in O(n log n) time, where n is the number of vertices in the underlying block graph. Using similar technique, we show that some results are incorrect by a counter-example. Then we redefine some notations, reprove Theorem 1 and redescribe Theorem 2, Theorem 3 and Theorem 4.展开更多

Once a facility fails, the other one takes full responsibility for the services. Here we assume that the facilities do not fail simultaneously. In this paper, we consider the backup 2-median problem on block graphs where any two edges in one block have the same length and the lengths of edges on different blocks may be different. By constructing a tree-shaped skeleton of a block graph, we devise an O（n log n q- m）-time algorithm to solve this problem where n and m are the number of vertices and edges, respectively, in the given block graph.展开更多

This paper deals with the research work on the blocking now in a network with the help of network flow theory. The blockage phenomena can be divided intO local blockage and network blockage. In this paper, which deals mainly with the latter, the fundamental concepts and definitions of network blocking flow, blocking outset are presented and the related theorems are proved. It is proved that the sufficient and necessary condition for the emergence of a blocking now in a network is the existence of the blocking outset. The necessary conditions for the existence of the blocking outset in a network are analysed and the characteristic cutset of blockage which reflects the all possible situation of blocking nows in the network is defined.In the last part of the paper the mathematical model of the minimum blocking now is developed and the solution to a small network is given.展开更多

Onthe basis of introducing the research results in [1], theminimum now capacity problem of a network in the mostseriously blocked situation is studied. With the conceptof complete outset presented in [1], the relationship between the minimum now capacity of a network and its minimum complete cut capacity is discussed, and the reasons for the difference betweent the minimum now capacity of a network and its minimum complete cut capa-city are analysed. In order to get the solution to the problem, the concepts of normalization of a network and its blocking path graph are presented. In the paper it is proved that the necessary and sufficient conditions for the equality between the minumum now capacity and its minumum complete cut capacity are the existence of a feasible flow in the blocking path graph. For the reason that there are some dependent production points in the blocking path graph of a network, the proof about the tenability of the Gale's Theorm for the planat normalized network without circuit is made.展开更多
