Implementations of loopless k shortest path algorithms are examined. Efficient storage structures for a large number of paths are given. A fast algorithm for determining the shortest paths in Yen's method is developed. Timing experiments show that a hybrid of Clarke's and Yen's methods is generally the fastest, although not significantly. Using upper bounds for the lengths of paths essentially improves all methods.
