Path-based strong component algorithm
Appearance
In graph theory, Gabow's algorithm is a linear-time method for finding strong components of a digraph. It was discovered in 1999 by H. Gabow and is a variation on Tarjan's algorithm. The algorithms uses a second stack to decide when to remove vertices in the same strong component from the main stack, instead of a vertex-indexed array of preorder numbers.
