A contemporaneous algorithm of Akkoyunlu (1973), although presented in different terms, can be viewed as being the same as the Bron–Kerbosch algorithm, as it generates the same recursive search tree.
Savremeni algoritam Akkoyunlu (1973), iako je predstavljen pod različitim uslovima, može se posmatrati kao isti algoritmu Bron-Kerboš, s' obzirom da generiše istu rekurzivnu pretragu stabla.
