Dijkstra is a legend in computer science and his algorithm, which he published in 1959, predates packet switching by a few ...

Shortest path algorithms sit at the heart of modern graph theory and many of the systems that move people, data, and goods around the world. After nearly seventy years of relying on the same classic ...

When Edsger W. Dijkstra published his algorithm in 1959, computer networks were barely a thing. The algorithm in question found the shortest path between any two nodes on a graph, with a variant ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

ABSTRACT: Manual timetable preparation in colleges and universities is often time-consuming, error-prone, and inefficient, especially with increasing student and course complexity. This paper proposes ...

There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with real non-negative edge weights in the comparison-addition ...

If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle the easiest pieces first. But this kind of sorting has a cost.

In the Dijkstra algorithm, when a shorter path to a neighbor is found, the neighbor's priority in the priority queue should be updated regardless of whether it is already present in the queue. In this ...

MIT researchers found that different algorithms can all be grouped into a ‘periodic table’ of AI. The idea for the table was an accident that emerged from identifying similarities between two ...

Finding the shortest path in a network is a classical problem, and a variety of search strategies have been proposed to solve it. In this paper, we review traditional approaches for finding shortest ...
