Start from Node 1. Determine, by manual calculation, the minimum total amount of cable that would be needed to connect each and every individual computer to the network server.

C. The network pictured below represents the layout of computers in a wired office layout. All possible wiring paths are shown. (Some obstacles exist between computers that eliminate some possible paths.) Each node is a location of a PC and the branches represent cables connecting the computers. The number on a branch indicates the length of the path in meters. (NOTE: The figure is not drawn to scale.) 4 4 5 8 5 1 4 8 2 7 Scenario I: Suppose that Node 1 is a server that needs to be connected to each and every individual PC. The cable system used requires each PC to have a unique connection
