We study a bottleneck Steiner tree problem: given a set P = {p 1 , p 2 , . . . , p n } of n terminals in the Euclidean plane and a positive integer k, find a Steiner tree with at most k Steiner points such that the length of the longest edges in the tree is minimized. The problem has applications in
We design a polynomial-time approximation scheme for the Steiner tree problem in the plane when the given set of regular points is c-local, i.e., in the minimum-cost spanning tree for the given set of regular points, the length of the longest edge is at most c times the length of the shortest edge.
## Abstract We experimentally evaluate sequential and distributed implementations of an approximation partitioning algorithm by Kalpakis and Sherman for the __Geometric Steiner Minimum Tree Problem (GSMT)__ in __R^d^__ for __d__ = 2,3. Our implementations incorporate an improved method for combinin
