A New Algorithm for Finding Vertex-Disjoint Paths
The fact that the demands which could be labelled a s “luxurious” in the past times, have became requirements
makes it inevitable that the service providers do n ew researches and prepare alternative plans under h arsh competition
conditions. In order to, provide the customers with the services in terms of the committed standards b y taking the possible
damages on wired and wireless networks into conside ration. Finding vertex disjoint paths gives many advantages on the wired
or wireless communication especially on Ad-Hoc Netw orks. In this paper, we suggest a new algorithm that calculates
alternative routes which do not contain common vert ex (vertex-disjoint path) with problematic route during a point-to-point
communication on the network in a short time and it is compared to similar algorithms.
