In this paper, we provide and prove the convergence of a min-sum algorithm to compute the shortest path between two nodes in a graph with positive edge weights. Unlike the standard distributed shortest path algorithms, the rate of convergence depends on the weight of the minimal path and not necessarily the number of nodes in the network.}, keywords={directed graphs, integer programmingdirected graph, distributed shortest path problem, integer programming, min-sum algorithm, routing, s-t paths}, doi={10.1109/ALLERTON.2008.4797655}, ISSN={}, }
