Smoothing pathfinding

[mohsenz2006]

Hi. I'm using A* algorithm for pathfinding and it's working fine. Now I want to know how I can smooth this path (especially on turns). is there any algorithm to do this? should it be done during the pathfinding or after the path is find?

The path may be smoothed by spline. See:
