title = "O(n log n)-average-time algorithm for shortest network under a given topology",
abstract = "In 1992, F.K. Hwang and J.F. Weng published an O(n 2) operation algorithm for computing the shortest network under a given full Steiner topology interconnecting n fixed points in the Euclidean plane. The Hwang-Weng algorithm can be used to substantially improve existing algorithms for the Steiner minimum tree problem because it reduces the number of different Steiner topologies to be considered dramatically. In this paper, we prove that the Hwang-Weng algorithm can be improved to use O(n log n) operations in average.",
