There is an open source effort to bring this style of mathematical analysis to graph optimization problems (shortest path, resource scheduling, etc) called the GraphBLAS:
I am the author of the pygraphblas Python binding around the GraphBLAS library, you can find a lot of examples in the demo notebooks shown in the README:
Many applications stem from a simple observation: if two activities must be performed consecutively then the time required to complete both is the sum of the individual times, but if they may be performed concurrently then the time required is the maximum of the individual times.
