Traffic bottlenecks are a set of road segments that have an unacceptable level of traffic caused by a poor balance between road capacity and traffic volume. A huge volume of trajectory data which captures real-time traffic conditions in…
In the $k$-Disjoint Shortest Paths ($k$-DSP) problem, we are given a weighted graph $G$ on $n$ nodes and $m$ edges with specified source vertices $s_1, \dots, s_k$, and target vertices $t_1, \dots, t_k$, and are tasked with determining if…
We study the problem of computing shortest paths in so-called dense distance graphs. Every planar graph $G$ on $n$ vertices can be partitioned into a set of $O(n/r)$ edge-disjoint regions (called an $r$-division) with $O(r)$ vertices each,…
Given an undirected graph and two disjoint vertex pairs $s_1,t_1$ and $s_2,t_2$, the Shortest two disjoint paths problem (S2DP) asks for the minimum total length of two vertex disjoint paths connecting $s_1$ with $t_1$, and $s_2$ with…

Let $G=(V,E,w)$ be a weighted undirected graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, and fix a set of $s$ sources $S\subseteq V$. We study the problem of computing {\em almost shortest paths} (ASP) for all pairs in $S \times V$ in both classical…

Segment Routing is a recent network technology that helps optimizing network throughput by providing finer control over the routing paths. Instead of routing directly from a source to a target, packets are routed via intermediate waypoints.…
