Original Abstract

The Steiner tree problem in graphs involves finding a minimum cost tree which connects a defined subset of the vertices. This problem generalises the minimum spanning tree problem, in contrast, it is NP-complete and is usually solved for large instances by deterministic or stochastic heuristic methods and approximate algorithms. In this paper, however, we focus on a different approach, based on the formulation of a mixed integer programming model and its modification for solving in the professional optimization tool GAMS, which is now capable of solving even large instances of problems of exponential complexity.
