Solvingk-shortest and constrained shortest path problems efficiently

In this paper, we examine the problems of finding thek-shortest paths, thek-shortest paths without repeated nodes, and the shortest path with a single side constraint between an origin and destination pair. Distances are assumed to be non-negative, but networks may be either directed or undirected. Two versions of algorithms for all these problems are compared. The computational results show that, in each case, the advantage of the adaptive version (as measured by total number of permanent labels) grows with the problem size.
