| Abstract: | The study explores the use of genetic algorithms for network design in the context of degree-constrained minimal spanning tree problem, compares for small networks the performance of GA for network design in the context of degree-constrained minimal spanning tree problem, compares for small networks the performance of GA with a mathematical model that provides optimal solutions, and compares GA's performance with two heuristic methods. |
