Abstract
We present several parallel algorithms for the problem of finding shortest paths from a specified vertex (called the source) to all others in a weighted directed graph. The algorithms are for machines ranging from array processors, multipleinstruction multiple-data stream machines to a special network of processors. These algorithms have been designed by “parallelizing” two classic sequential algorithms — one due to Dijkstra (1959), the other due to Moore (1957). Our interest is not only in obtaining speeded-up parallel versions of the algorithms but also in exploring the design principles, the commonality of correctness proofs of the different versions, and the subjective complexity of explaining and understanding these versions.
