34 ///\brief Implementation of an algorithm for finding k edge-disjoint paths between 2 nodes
35 /// of minimal total length
37 /// The class \ref lemon::Suurballe implements
38 /// an algorithm for finding k edge-disjoint paths
39 /// from a given source node to a given target node in an
40 /// edge-weighted directed graph having minimal total weight (length).
42 ///\warning Length values should be nonnegative!
44 ///\param Graph The directed graph type the algorithm runs on.
45 ///\param LengthMap The type of the length map (values should be nonnegative).
47 ///\note It it questionable whether it is correct to call this method after
48 ///%Suurballe for it is just a special case of Edmonds' and Karp's algorithm
49 ///for finding minimum cost flows. In fact, this implementation just
50 ///wraps the MinCostFlow algorithms. The paper of both %Suurballe and
51 ///Edmonds-Karp published in 1972, therefore it is possibly right to
52 ///state that they are
53 ///independent results. Most frequently this special case is referred as
54 ///%Suurballe method in the literature, especially in communication
