CS Talk - Ozan Erat

Host: Holly Rushmeier

(Sample Class Lecture):  Finding the shortest path on a graph using Dijkstra’s algorithm.

Abstract:

Single source shortest path algorithms are a widely used concept in software development. In this sample lecture, we will be discussing single source shortest path algorithms, specifically Dijkstra’s algorithm and its runtime complexity analysis from various aspects. Dijkstra’s algorithm, which is named after Edsger W. Dijkstra, solves the problem of finding the shortest path from a single source to all possible destinations within a graph.
