Although recent scientific output focuses on multiple shortest-path problem definitions for road networks, none of the existing solutions does efficiently answer all different types of SP queries. This work proposes SALT, a novel framework that not only efficiently answers SP related queries but also k-nearest neighbor queries not handled by previous approaches. Our solution offers all the benefits needed for practical use-cases, including excellent query performance and very short preprocessing times, thus making it also a viable option for dynamic road networks, i.e., edge weights changing frequently due to traffic updates. The proposed SALT framework is a deployable software solution capturing a range of network-related query problems under one "algorithmic hood". |
