Abstract
A bit manipulation method is given for finding shortest distances from an origin in an unweighted graph, or alternatively, for finding connected components. The basic approach is similar to some component algorithms already in the literature but an easy implementation is given that overcomes the problem which prevents the others from being efficientβnamely, the problem of identifying the ones in a sparse bit string without checking all the bits. The algorithm would be most effective for moderate sized graphs (about 20β100 nodes). Computational results are given.

A distance transform converts a binary image consisting of foreground (feature) and background (nonfeature) elements into a gray level image, where each element contains the distance from the corresponding element to the nearest foreground element. The calculation of exact Euclidean distance transfo
## Abstract Loading margin denotes how close the power system is to voltage instability. This paper presents a new technique to obtain the shortest distance to voltage instability, which converts the computation of the closest point of collapse to an optimization problem. Compared with the existing
