Abstract
The multi-commodity minimum disconnecting set in a given network is of considerable interest in military operations. The present known methods of finding the multi-commodity minimum disconnecting set consist of implicit enumeration techniques or techniques which involve the solution of several specially structured linear integer programs known as set-covering problems. In this paper we present an efficient method of finding the multi-commodity minimum disconnecting set by solving a single set-covering problem. Extensions and computational experience are also discussed.Keywords
