Title
Incremental network design with shortest paths.
Abstract
•We study the optimal choice and timing of network expansions.•We introduce a new class of incremental network design problems.•We develop a 4-approximation algorithm for incremental network design with shortest paths.•Analysis shows that coordinating timing of expansions increases the complexity of network design.
