Abstract
The solution of the algebraic path problem (APP) for arbitrarily sized graphs by a fixed-size systolic array processor (SAP) is addressed. The APP is decomposed into two subproblems, and SAP is designed for each one. Both SAPs combined produce a highly implementable versatile SAP. The proposed SAP has p ×p processing elements (PEs) solving the APP of an N -vertex graph in N 3/p 2+N 2/ p +3p -2 cycles. With slight modifications in the operations performed by the PEs, the problem is optimally solved in N 3/p 2+3p -2 cycles
