What algorithms did Dijkstra develop?

I recently asked a question about one of the Dijkstra’s algorithms (shunting-yard). But almost everyone thought "Dijkstra's algorithm" meant his shortest path algorithm.

What other algorithms has Dijkstra developed?

+13  A: 

Algorithms by Edsger W. Dijkstra

  1. Dijkstra's algorithm
  2. Shunting-yard algorithm
  3. Banker's algorithm
  4. Smooth Sort
  5. Dijkstra-Scholten algorithm

It seams pretty clear to me, that this is the right answer. How can it be 'unanswerable'?

The question was written rather poorly at first. @Thomas (Good call on making wiki, Marc, already had one under 2k user add to it.)
