Comparison and simulation of different shortest path algorithms with mobile android application

Nowadays, technology is advancing very quickly and all people in the world have at least one technological device. Thanks to these developments, small-size mobile phones, tablets, wearable technology devices like wrist watches which we call portable devices have increased in usage compared to the last decade. This rapid increase appears to have increased exponentially, especially in the field of computer science. Technology has developed along with Free Software groups. Now billions of people are using Android based mobile phones and the number of these people is increasing. Games and applications downloaded from Google Play Market are generating billions of dollars in revenue. For this reason, the optimization of the performance of the used devices has become an important necessity. Research is being conducted on the performance of games and navigation-based applications for a fast and efficient way, especially in many strategy games. In these studies, it is shown how to implement the most used shortest path finding algorithms in games and applications and their performances have been compared. The performance of shortest path algorithms on Android phones is shown. Depending on the advantages and disadvantages of the algorithms, how the results are affected has been specified in detailed way. Also an Android application developed, and with this application, it is aimed to have knowledge about how users will use these algorithms and how they will prefer.
