Abstract

An algorithm is presented to determine the minimum cost flow in a fuzzy network taking into account vitality degree. Algorithm consists in iteratively finding the paths of the minimum cost with vitality degrees no less than required one and pushing the flows along these paths. Network’s parameters are presented in a fuzzy form due to the impact of environment factors and human activity. The proposed algorithm is based on the introduced rules of the residual network building. The numerical example is given that operated data from geoinformation system “ObjectLand” that contains information about railway system of Russian Federation. Initial data in a fuzzy form allow turning to the fuzzy graph with nodes presented by stations and arcs – by paths among them.
