Description

Betweenness centrality is widely used graph metric used in order to find most significant vertices (or edges) in the graph. Betweenness quantifies the number of times a node is a bridge along the shortest path between two other vertices. Therefore by computing betweenness over the road network represented by weighted, oriented graph we are able to identify places that will most likely become traffic bottlenecks. Combining this approach with flood prediction we are able to simulate and monitor how will these bottlenecks move in case of flooding. In this talk our parallel implementation of betweenness algorithm is going to be presented along with results from combining this approach with flood prediction.
