Back in the hazy olden days of the pre-2000s, navigating between two locations generally required someone to whip out a paper map and painstakingly figure out the most optimal route between those d… ...

Refining with colors Mathematicians have developed various strategies to compare graphs. Since the 1970s, algorithms have been able to test graph isomorphism, but in exponential time.

In such cases, the fastest known shortest-path algorithm doesn’t work. For decades, fast algorithms for finding shortest paths on negative-weight graphs have remained elusive.

The graph isomorphism problem has been labeled as NP, though some have suggested it should be NP complete—it involves trying to create an algorithm able to look at two networks (with nodes and ...

The paper considers a project scheduling problem in weighted directed graphs in which arcs represent operations while nodes are identified with starting and finishing endpoints of the operations; arc ...
