Learn how to use breadth-first search (BFS) to find the shortest path, the closest element, or the optimal solution in different problems.

A problem that arises in many practical applications of linear graphs and in some purely mathematical applications is the determination of the isomorphism of two given graphs; such applications ...

Now a trio of computer scientists has solved this long-standing problem. Their new algorithm, which finds the shortest paths through a graph from a given “source” node to every other node, nearly ...
