We propose a blocked version of Floyd's all-pairs shortest-paths algorithm. The blocked algorithm makes better utilization of cache than does Floyd's original algorithm. Experiments indicate that the blocked algorithm delivers a speedup (relative to the unblocked Floyd's algorithm) between 1.6 and 1.9 on a Sun Ultra Enterprise 4000/5000 for graphs that have between 480 and 3200 vertices. The measured speedup on an SGI O2 for graphs with between 240 and 1200 vertices is between 1.6 and 2.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
