Abstract

In this paper, we present a new efficient update of shortest path algorithms for network routing, which make use of the information of the previously computed SPT. Besides efficiency, our algorithm maintain the most routing stability by making minimum changes to the topology of an existing SPT. In order to get the new SPT in the basic algorithm, we introduce a weight-change graph Gaccording to original graph G. Because of the nonnegative edge in G, we can extend our idea about dynamic update of shortest path tree to a graph with negative edges. To the authors' knowledge, our algorithms are the most efficient algorithms known in the literature.
