Abstract
A method may include assigning each node of a first network to a different node cluster such that a number of nodes equals a number of node clusters, selecting multiple nodes of the first network as a set of nodes, and selecting multiple node clusters as a set of node clusters. The method may also include solving a first optimization problem by reassigning one or more of the nodes of the set of nodes to different node clusters of the set of node clusters while maintaining assigned node clusters of the nodes that are not part of the set of nodes and after reassigning one or more of the nodes of the set of nodes to different node clusters, merging the nodes assigned to at least one of the node clusters to form a second network with fewer nodes than the number of nodes of the first network.
