dc.description.abstractIn this thesis, we study 1-sink location and k-sink evacuation problem on dynamic cycle networks. We consider the 1-sink location problem is to find the optimal location of the 1 sink, while the k-sink evacuation problem is to find the optimal evacuation protocol for the given locations of the k sinks. Both results minimize the sum of the evacuation times of all the supply located at the vertices to the sink/s of a given cycle network of n vertices. We present an efficient algorithm with a useful data structure that finds the optimal location of the 1 sink in O(n) time when the capacity of the edges are uniform. If the edges have arbitrary capacities, we solve the problem in O(nlogn)$ time by an extension of the data structure. We also propose an O(n) time algorithm to solve the k-sink evacuation problem with uniform edge capacity.en_US
