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 ...

Creating simple data classes in Java traditionally required substantial boilerplate code. Consider how we would represent Java’s mascots, Duke and Juggy: public class JavaMascot { private final String ...

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 ...

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 ...

Mr. Ferguson is a documentary filmmaker. As you scroll through the internet, you’ve probably noticed the same problem Kirby Ferguson has: “Everything looks the same, sounds the same, is the same.” In ...
