To keep up with the pace of fast development of Internet, cluster architecture has been proposed for next generation core routers. In a cluster router, parallel computation is expected. Computing shortest path tree (SPT) is a fundamental problem implementing OSPF, which is one of the most popular routing protocols. This paper presents a parallel algorithm BPA (Branching Parallel Algorithm) for computing SPT, analyzes the performance of BPA, and finally validates the BPA performance by experiments
