alpar@921: \brief Graph structures implemented in LEMON.
alpar@430: 
marci@1172: The implementation of combinatorial algorithms heavily relies on 
marci@1172: efficient graph implementations. LEMON offers data structures which are 
marci@1172: planned to be easily used in an experimental phase of implementation studies, 
marci@1172: and thereafter the program code can be made efficient by small modifications. 
alpar@430: 
deba@2084: The most efficient implementation of diverse applications require the
deba@2084: usage of different physical graph implementations. These differences
deba@2084: appear in the size of graph we require to handle, memory or time usage
deba@2084: limitations or in the set of operations through which the graph can be
deba@2084: accessed.  LEMON provides several physical graph structures to meet
deba@2084: the diverging requirements of the possible users.  In order to save on
deba@2084: running time or on memory usage, some structures may fail to provide
deba@2084: some graph features like edge or node deletion.
marci@1172: 
marci@1172: Alteration of standard containers need a very limited number of 
marci@1172: operations, these together satisfy the everyday requirements. 
alpar@2117: In the case of graph structures, different operations are needed which do 
alpar@2006: not alter the physical graph, but gives another view. If some nodes or 
marci@1172: edges have to be hidden or the reverse oriented graph have to be used, then 
alpar@2117: this is the case. It also may happen that in a flow implementation 
alpar@2006: the residual graph can be accessed by another algorithm, or a node-set 
alpar@2006: is to be shrunk for another algorithm. 
marci@1172: LEMON also provides a variety of graphs for these requirements called 
alpar@1401: \ref graph_adaptors "graph adaptors". Adaptors cannot be used alone but only 
marci@1172: in conjunction with other graph representation. 
alpar@430: 
alpar@678: You are free to use the graph structure that fit your requirements
alpar@678: the best, most graph algorithms and auxiliary data structures can be used
marci@1172: with any graph structures.

alpar@2117:   interface. On the other hand they should provide nothing else. All
alpar@2117:   the algorithms working on a data structure meeting a certain concept
alpar@2117:   should compile with these classes. (Though it will not run properly,
alpar@2117:   of course.) In this way it is easily to check if an algorithm
alpar@2117:   doesn't use any extra feature of a certain implementation.
alpar@2117: 
alpar@2233: - The concept descriptor classes also provide a <em>checker class</em>
alpar@2117:   that makes it possible check whether a certain implementation of a
alpar@2117:   concept indeed provides all the required features.
