It appears the link to balancing is incorrect. Based on the context of the sentence with respect to balancing, I would assume Khachiyan's work was related to matrix balancing, not networking balancing. However, Khachiyan's work on linear programming would have application to network balancing (I think). In short, I find the article ambiguous on what his contribution was with respect to balancing.

Khachiyan wrote on matrix balancing, which is useful in matrix iterative analysis (DAD theorems) and statistics (RAS algorithm, sic., for log-linear models): See Bapat and Rhagavan's Nonnegative Matrices for background and for research see Khachiyan's papers with Kalantari, etc.
You are correct that his work has (theoretical) applications in communication-network balancing. Thanks, Kiefer.Wolfowitz (talk) 15:42, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
