Abstract

We present a new parallel algorithm to solve the all-pairs shortest path problem in a given graph which is considerably faster than the most recently published algorithm [7] for the same problem. Next we propose a suitable VLSI systolic architecture to map our algorithm and evaluate the performance of the proposed architecture in terms of execution time and interprocessor communication time. We show that our implementation has O(log2n) execution time (compare-exchange time) and O(n log n) communication time compared to O(n log n) and O(n2) in [7].
