The k shortest path routing problem is a generalization of the shortest path routing problem in a given network. It asks not only about a shortest path but also about next k−1 shortest paths (which may be longer than the shortest path). A variation of the problem is the loopless k shortest paths.
Two primary problems of pathfinding are (1) to find a path between two nodes in a graph; and (2) the shortest path problem—to find the optimal shortest path. Basic algorithms such as breadth-first and depth-first search address the first problem by exhausting all possibilities; starting from the given node, they iterate over all potential ...
In graph theory and theoretical computer science, the longest path problem is the problem of finding a simple path of maximum length in a given graph.A path is called simple if it does not have any repeated vertices; the length of a path may either be measured by its number of edges, or (in weighted graphs) by the sum of the weights of its edges.
Problem 2. Find the path of minimum total length between two given nodes P and Q. We use the fact that, if R is a node on the minimal path from P to Q, knowledge of the latter implies the knowledge of the minimal path from P to R. is a paraphrasing of Bellman's Principle of Optimality in the context of the shortest path problem.
The binary Golay code, G 23 is a perfect code. That is, the spheres of radius three around code words form a partition of the vector space. G 23 is a 12-dimensional subspace of the space F 23 2. The automorphism group of the perfect binary Golay code G 23 (meaning the subgroup of the group S 23 of permutations of the coordinates of F 23
He has used Codeforces problems in his class, 15-295: Competition Programming and Problem Solving. [20] At the National University of Singapore , Codeforces rating is also used as an entrance qualifying criterion for registering for a 4-unit course, CS3233 Competitive Programming, as students have to achieve a rating of at least 1559 to be able ...
In the guillotine cutting problem, both the items and the "bins" are two-dimensional rectangles rather than one-dimensional numbers, and the items have to be cut from the bin using end-to-end cuts. In the selfish bin packing problem, each item is a player who wants to minimize its cost. [53]
Another related problem is the bottleneck travelling salesman problem: Find a Hamiltonian cycle in a weighted graph with the minimal weight of the weightiest edge. A real-world example is avoiding narrow streets with big buses. [15] The problem is of considerable practical importance, apart from evident transportation and logistics areas.
