We give a randomized parallel algorithm for computing single-source shortest paths in weighted digraphs. We show that the exact shortest-path problem can be efficiently reduced to solving a series of approximate shortest-path subproblems. Our algorithm for the approximate shortest-path problem is ba

We present a simple parallel algorithm for the single-source shortest path problem in planar digraphs with nonnegative real edge weights. The algorithm runs on the EREW PRAM model of parallel computation in O((n 2= +n 1&= ) log n) time, performing O(n 1+= log n) work for any 0<=<1ร2. The strength of
Shortest path computation is required by a large number of applications such as VLSI, transportation, and communication networks. These applications, which are often very complex and have sparse networks, generally use parallel labeling shortest path algorithms. Such algorithms, when implemented on
