Abstract
Publisher Summary This chapter considers some heuristics for the Steiner problem in graphs. The Steiner problem in graphs (networks) is to find a minimum cost tree T spanning a prescribed subset Z of vertices in a given graph G with positive edge costs. There exists a vast bibliography of the Steiner problem and thus the reader is referred to surveys. The Steiner problem is solvable in polynomial time for any fixed cardinality of Z, but, in general, it is an NP-hard problem even for special cases.
