Abstract
An assertion that Dijkstra's algorithm for shortest paths (adapted to allow arcs of negative weight) runs in O(n3) steps is disproved by showing a set of networks which take O(n2n) steps.

A Multiple Pairs Shortest Path Algorithm
The multiple pairs shortest path problem (MPSP) arises in many applications where the shortest paths and distances between only some specific pairs of origin-destination (OD) nodes in a network are desired. The traditional repeated single-source shortest ...
Generalization of Shortest Path Map
ITNG '10: Proceedings of the 2010 Seventh International Conference on Information Technology: New GenerationsWe consider the problem of constructing shortest path maps in two dimensions under angle constraint. Shortest path maps are used for planning short length paths from a fixed source point s to varying goal points. In the standard shortest path map the ...
