This work presents parallel algorithms for the all-sources generalized shortest paths problem using Floyd-Warshall and matrix multiplication algorithms and monotonic piecewise-linear functions.
Abstract
Generalized network flo w problems generalize ordinary network flo w problems by specifying a flo w multiplier for each arc . For every unit of flo w entering the arc, units of flo w exit. We present parallel algorithms for the all-sources generalized shortest paths problem using Floyd-Warshall and matrix multiplication algorithms and monotonic piecewise-linear functions. The latter algorithm requires polylogarithmic time on a concurrent-read exclusive-write PRAM with a superpolynomial number of algorithms.
