Everyone knows that the path of least resistance is the path that will always be taken, be it by water, electricity or the ...

When NASA’s Curiosity rover left Earth, its aluminum wheels were designed for sand, slopes and scattered stones, not a ...

QuoteIQ, a CRM platform built for mobile and field service businesses, has announced the launch of Route Density, a new ...

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 ...

The All-Pairs Shortest Paths Problem, Seeking the Shortest Distance Between Every Node Pair in a Graph, is Efficiently Solved by Johnson's Algorithm for All Pairs of a Vertext, Bellman-Ford for ...

Abstract: This paper presents a comparative study of the Floyd-Warshall (FW) algorithm and the Simulated Annealing (SA) heuristic for solving shortest path problems in static and dynamic traffic-based ...

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 ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

Graph theory is an integral component of algorithm design that underlies sparse matrices, relational databases, and networks. Improving the performance of graph algorithms has direct implications to ...
