Abstract

We present an algorithm which given a source node and a set of n-1 target nodes in the (n,k)-star graph S"n","k, where all nodes are distinct, builds a collection of n-1 node-disjoint paths, one from each target node to the source. The collection of paths output from the algorithm is such that each path has length at most 6k-7, and the algorithm has time complexity O(k^2n^2).
