This approach consists in encoding the topological structure of CG in an automaton called , then techniques of word processing are applied for computing the shortest paths. We present algorithms for computing the -shortest paths, the shortest disjoint paths and the shortest path avoiding a set of nodes and edges. For any CG with diameter , the time complexity of the proposed algorithms is , where denotes the size of . We show that our proposal outperforms the state of art of topology-agnostic algorithms for disjoint shortest paths and stays competitive with respect to proposals for specific families of CG. Therefore, the proposed algorithms set a base in the design of adaptive and low-complexity routing schemes for networks whose interconnections are defined by CG.enCayley GraphsPath computationK-shortest pathsInterconnection networksArticlehttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0166218X18306462?via%3Dihub
