A minimum spanning tree (MST) with a small diameter is required in numerous practical situations. It is needed, for example, in distributed mutual exclusion algorithms in order to ...
The coding by which chromosomes represent candidate solutions is a fundamental design choice in a genetic algorithm. This paper describes a novel coding of spanning trees in a gen...
Given an undirected graph with weights associated with its edges, the Steiner tree problem consists of finding a minimum weight subtree spanning a given subset of (terminal) nodes...
Motivated by optimization problems in sensor coverage, we formulate and study the Minimum-Area Spanning Tree (mast) problem: Given a set P of n points in the plane, find a spannin...
Consider a directed graph G = (V, E) with n vertices and a root vertex r ∈ V . The DMDST problem for G is one of constructing a spanning tree rooted at r, whose maximal degree is...
