Abstract: An e#cient heuristic is presented for the problem of finding a minimum-size k- connected spanning subgraph of an (undirected or directed) simple graph G = (V, E). There are four versions of the problem, and the approximation guarantees are as follows: . (Update)

.... building on a ratio 2 2(k 1) previously shown in [KR96] For uniform costs, an approximation ratio of 1 1 k is obtained in [CT00] For a complete Euclidean graph, a polynomial time approximation scheme (i.e. factor 1 # for any fixed # 0) is devised in [CL99]...

...in graphs satisfying the triangle inequality. Fernandes [6] improved the approximation ratio to 1.75 for k ECSS. Cheriyan and Thurimella [3] presented an elegant algorithm (which we call the CT algorithm) that achieves a performance ratio of 1 k 1 for unweighted k ECSS. They...
