A nonenumerative algorithm to find the k longest (shortest) paths in a DAG

In this paper, we present a novel and efficient algorithm to find the k longest (shortest) paths between sources and sinks in a directed acyclic graph (DAG). The algorithm does not enumerate paths therefore it is especially useful for very large k values. It is based on the Valued-Sum-of-Product (VS...

description In this paper, we present a novel and efficient algorithm to find the k longest (shortest) paths between sources and sinks in a directed acyclic graph (DAG). The algorithm does not enumerate paths therefore it is especially useful for very large k values. It is based on the Valued-Sum-of-Product (VSOP) tool, which is an extension of Zero-suppressed Binary Decision Diagrams (ZBDDs). We assessed the performance of this algorithm with a DAG model of a path-intensive combinational circuit, viz. c6288, that has \sim10^{20} paths. We found that it took about 64 minutes to compute all paths in this DAG along with their lengths.
