Contraflow Transportation Network Reconfiguration for Evacuation Route Planning
Given a transportation network having source nodes with evacuees and destination nodes, we want to find a contraflow network configuration (that is, ideal direction for each edge) ...

Contraflow network reconfiguration for evacuation planning: a summary of results
Contraflow, or lane reversal, is a way of increasing outbound capacity of a real network by reversing the direction of inbound roads during evacuations. The contraflow is consider...
