Worst-Case Analysis of Network Design Problem Heuristics

The Optimal Network problem (as defined by Scott [16]) consists of selecting a subset of arcs that minimizes the sum of the shortest paths between all nodes subject to a budget constraint. This paper considers the worst-case behavior of heuristics for this prob'em. Let n be the number of nodes...
