In a computer network some pairs of computers are connected by network cables. Your goal is to set up the computers so that messages can be sent quickly from any computer to any other computer. For this you have identified each of the n com- puters uniquely with a number between 1 and n, and have decided that a message should consist of two such numbers, identifying the sender and the recipient, fol- lowed by the content of the message. As cables are relatively short, you can assume that sending a message across a single cable takes an amount of time that is the same irrespective of the length of the cable. You can further assume that at most one message travels between computer at any point, so that you don't have to worry about inference among messages.
