In a networking or telecommunication applications, dijkstras algorithm has been used for solving the mindelay path problem which is the shortest path problem. Basically you compute the shortest path between each pair of vertices in your original graph, then create missing edges with the computed costs and remember with them the actual paths between the vertices. It can handle graphs consisting of cycles, but negative weights will cause this algorithm to produce incorrect results. Let u be a vertex in g and let v be the first new unvisited vertex visited after visiting u in the traversal.
