Given a directed graph G=(V, E) of a single connected component with a vertex
source and a vertex sink. Each arc has a positive real valued
capacity, currently it's equivalent to the weight of the arc. The flow of the
network is the net flow entering the vertex sink. The maximum flow
problem is to determine the maximum possible value for the flow to the
sink and the corresponding flow values for each arc.
See documentation on these algorithms in Boost Graph Library for more details.
