In algorithms, as in life, negativity can be a drag. Consider the problem of finding the shortest path between two points on a graph — a network of nodes connected by links, or edges. Often, these ...

We consider the specialization of the primal simplex algorithm to the problem of finding a tree of directed shortest paths from a given node to all other nodes in a network of n nodes or finding a ...

In recent years, the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model has gained significant attention. However, most of distributed and parallel graph algorithms in the MPC model are designed for static ...

Military Operations Research, Vol. 14, No. 3 (2009), pp. 31-52 (22 pages) We formulate and solve aircraftrouting problems that arise when planning missions for military aircraft that are subject to ...

The problem of Micromouse i.e. A Maze Solving Robot is about 32 years old but its importance in the field of Robotics is unparalleled because it requires thorough analysis and paper work. Before it is ...

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.
