Differences of this algorithm with Moore's algorithm (1957)

Hi, I have a book ((in Italian) "Algoritmi e Strutture Dati" by A. Bertossi and A. Montresor, which is the textbook for the course of "Algorithms and Data Structures" at the university of Trento, Italy) that presents (pagg. 211-216) pseudocode which is identical to the one described in this algorithm as a standard implementation for the Bellman-Ford algorithm. After a little bit of research, I have found that this form of Bellman-Ford was proposed by Moore in 1957 (see [1] and [2]) and later found equivalent to Bellman-Ford. Moore's algorithm is so well known, that the Bellman-Ford algorithm is also known as Bellman-Ford-Moore algorithm (this is also mentioned in the incipit of the Wikipedia article about Bellman-Ford). So, I am a little confused by this article. Is there something in this algorithm that I am missing, or is it one of the many variants of Bellman-Ford and should the article be moved in a section of Bellman-Ford? --CristianCantoro (talk) 16:07, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
