👉 The Link Fluid is a type of network flow algorithm that extends the classical Max-Flow Min-Cut Theorem to handle more complex scenarios, particularly those involving variable costs and capacities that change over time. It operates by maintaining a residual graph that tracks the remaining capacity from source to sink for each edge, allowing it to dynamically adjust to changes in network conditions. This makes Link Fluid highly effective for modeling and solving optimization problems in dynamic environments, such as transportation networks with fluctuating traffic or resource allocation under varying demands. By efficiently computing maximum flows in these adaptive settings, it provides a powerful tool for optimizing resource distribution and network performance.
