Memory-Efficient Solutions to Large-Graph MST Problems
share
Minimum Spanning Trees are a well-studied subset of graph problems. While classical algorithms have existed to solve these problems for decades, new variations and application areas are constantly being discovered. When dealing with large graph problems, however, memory constraints can often be limiting, especially when using these classical methods in memory restricted environments. In this work, we propose an augmentation of Prim's algorithm that can be empirically shown to solve MST problems with a reduction in auxiliary memory usage of over 90
