Question 14

+3 marksWritten answer

Use the given information and answer the subquestions : Seven computers { } are linked by a network, and each link has a maintenance cost. The graph below shows how the computers are linked. Each node represents a computer, each edge represents a link between a pair of computers, and weights on the edges represent the maintenance cost (in hundreds of rupees). The goal is to pick a subset of links such that the total maintenance cost is minimum and the computers remain connected through the chosen links.
