چکیده

Given a graph where increasing the weight of an edge has a nondecreasing convex piecewise linear cost, we study the problem of finding a minimum cost increase of the weights so that the value of all minimum spanning trees is equal to some target value. We formulate this as a combinatorial linear program and give an algorithm. Mots clés : Arbres couvrants de poids minimum, sécurisation des réseaux.

Optimal Self-healing of Smart Distribution Grids Based on Spanning Trees to Improve System Reliability

In this paper, a self-healing approach for smart distribution network is presented based on Graph theory and cut sets. In the proposed Graph theory based approach, the upstream grid and all the existing microgrids are modeled as a common node after fault occurrence. Thereafter, the maneuvering lines which are in the cut sets are selected as the recovery path for alternatives networks by making ...

Minimum weight spanning trees with bounded diameter

Let G be a simple graph with non-negative edge weights. Determining a minimum weight spanning tree is a fundamental problem that arises in network design and as a subproblem in many combinatorial optimization problems such as vehicle routing. In some applications, it is necessary to restrict the diameter of the spanning tree and thus one is interested in the problem : Find, in a given weighted ...

Providing a Simple Method for the Calculation of the Source and Target Reliabili- ty in a Communication Network (SAT)

The source and target reliability in SAT network is de- fined as the flawless transmission from the source node to all the other nodes. In some references, the SAT pro- cess has been followed between all the node pairs but it is very time-consuming in today’s widespread networks and involves many costs. In this article, a method has been proposed to compare the reliability in complex networks b...

A Mixed Integer Programming Approach to Optimal Feeder Routing for Tree-Based Distribution System: A Case Study

A genetic algorithm is proposed to optimize a tree-structured power distribution network considering optimal cable sizing. For minimizing the total cost of the network, a mixed-integer programming model is presented determining the optimal sizes of cables with minimized location-allocation cost. For designing the distribution lines in a power network, the primary factors must be considered as m...
