  We show an improved parallel algorithm for decomposing an undirected
unweighted graph into small diameter pieces with a small fraction of the edges
in between. These decompositions form critical subroutines in a number of graph
algorithms. Our algorithm builds upon the shifted shortest path approach
introduced in [Blelloch, Gupta, Koutis, Miller, Peng, Tangwongsan, SPAA 2011].
By combining various stages of the previous algorithm, we obtain a
significantly simpler algorithm with the same asymptotic guarantees as the best
sequential algorithm.
