Introduction
This module presents a subset of the mathematical topic known as graph theory. You then will be shown how you can put a knowledge of this area of mathematics to use in a concrete application: routing in computer and telephone networks.
How do we ensure that all nodes in a network will be able to communicate quickly and reliably?
