Let G = (V, E) be a directed graph with non-negative edge lengths `(e), e ? E that represents a road network. Alice is invited to a party at her friend Bob's house and she wants to buy dessert at a grocery store on the drive to his house. Just as she is about to leave she realizes that she may not have sufficient gas in her car to drive all the way to Bob's house. Her car can go at most a distance of R before the gas runs out. Describe an efficient algorithm to help Alice accomplish the task of reaching Bob's house with as little travel as feasible; she needs to buy dessert but may or may not need to fill gap. Assume Alice's house is at node s and Bob's house is at node t and that the grocery shops are given by a set X ? V and the gas stations by a set Y ? V. Assume that X, Y are disjoint sets. Also assume, for simplicity, that once Alice fills gas she can travel an infinite distance. Note that Alice could buy dessert either before or after filling up gas, as long as she does not run out of fuel on the way to the gas station. Express your running time as a function of n, the number of nodes, and m, the number of edges.
