Consider the following problem for path finding where S is the source, G is the Goal and O are obstacles. We can only move horizontally and vertically (not diagonally). We will not re-visit an already visited cell.
- Simulate the application of Breadth-first search tree to find all paths from S to G. Provide the order of visit for each node.

In the Erdös-Rényi random network model, suppose N=101 and p=1/20, that is, there are 101 vertices, and every pair of vertices has a probability of 1/20 of being connected by an edge. For the network model given what is the probability that a network generated with those parameters has exactly 400 edges? No need to give the decimal value, the mathematical expression will suffice

- Recall that we discussed the "leader-based" deterministic distributed algorithm for 2-colouring a path, that runs in time O(n) on an n node path network. Suppose we now relax the constraint of 2-colouring to mean, it is okay for one of the neighbours of a node to x get the same colour as the mode x, as long as the other neighbour gets a different colour. The end points must get a different colour from their respective unique neighbours. The running time for a best efficiency deterministic distributed algorithm, using unique identifiers for nodes, for this problem would be:arrow_forwardPlease don't use handwritting for this question How would you modify the dynamic programming algorithm for the coin collecting problem if some cells on the board are inaccessible for the robot?

- Suppose there is undirected graph F with nonnegative edge weights we ≥ 0. You have also calculated the minimum spanning tree of F and also the shortest paths to all nodes from a particular node p ∈ V . Now, suppose that each edge weight is increased by 1, so the new weights are we′ = we + 1. (a) Will there be a change of the minimum spanning tree?
