35 ///\brief Implementation of an algorithm for finding a flow of value \c k
36 ///(for small values of \c k) having minimal total cost between 2 nodes
39 /// The class \ref lemon::MinCostFlow "MinCostFlow" implements an
40 /// algorithm for finding a flow of value \c k having minimal total
41 /// cost from a given source node to a given target node in an
42 /// edge-weighted directed graph. To this end, the edge-capacities
43 /// and edge-weights have to be nonnegative. The edge-capacities
44 /// should be integers, but the edge-weights can be integers, reals
45 /// or of other comparable numeric type. This algorithm is intended
46 /// to be used only for small values of \c k, since it is only
47 /// polynomial in k, not in the length of k (which is log k): in
48 /// order to find the minimum cost flow of value \c k it finds the
49 /// minimum cost flow of value \c i for every \c i between 0 and \c
52 ///\param Graph The directed graph type the algorithm runs on.
53 ///\param LengthMap The type of the length map.
54 ///\param CapacityMap The capacity map type.
