Abstract
An O(n 2) heuristic algorithm using randomized decisions is developed for determining a near-optimal set of nodes. For small values of n , the authors can determine how close the heuristic solution is to the optimal set of nodes. They also compare their heuristic to other algorithms reported in the literature
