Question

Find the shortest paths from node 1 to all other nodes in the graph shown below. The total weight of the resulting shortest path tree is ______________.

Now, consider all pair shortest paths (shortest paths from each node to all other nodes) for the same graph. ____________ is the only edge that is not used by any shortest path. BTW, write the edge as (x,y).

Now, compute the minimum spanning tree for the graph. ________________ are the edges that are rejected by the MST algorithm. ____________ is the total cost of the MST.

Finally, compute the maximum spanning tree for the graph; it maximizes the total weight instead of minimizing it. ___________ will be the total weight of that maximum spanning tree.

Explanation / Answer

1) he total weight ofthe resulting shortest path tree is 29




2) 1-9 is the only edge that is notused by any shortest path




3)1-7 ,1-8 ,1-9 are the edges that are rejectedby the MST algorithm.




4) 16 is the total cost of theMST.




5) 39 is the total weight of that maximum spanning tree.
