Question 7
(a) What is the goal of the distributed Bellman-Ford algorithm, what does it try to achieve (DFS, BFS, MST, or otherwise)?
(b) Discuss the exponential message complexity of the asynchronous Bellman-Ford algorithm. Base your discussion on the sample diagram below - which is a simplified version of the diagram used in the lectures.
(c) Based on (b), discuss how the time complexity can also be exponential, in the FIFO scenario.
