Dijkstra's: STEP 4 Base Network Prior [Step 3] Next [Step 5] Final Step

Step 4. Node 12 is added (permanently labeled) to the MP tree. Outbound links from node 12 include links to centroid 2 and to nodes 10 and 13; corresponding temporary labels are updated. Since node 13 has already been reached (from node 7), its label is updated as the minimum value of the current label (6, from node 7) and the new link (5, from node 12). The link from 7 to 13 will no longer be considered since it is inferior to the link from 12 to 13. Note that node 12 and node 8 are equidistant from the home node. Since node 12 was added to the loose ends table first, it is selected first for the MP Tree.
