Method of Supplying Multiple Loads from Multiple Sources over an InterconnectedNetwork of Defined Paths

摘要

The method defines a distribution solution for supplying product to a pluralityof loads from a plurality of sources via a network of substantially linear path seginents that are interconnected at nodes. A combination of minimum spanning trees (MST) and a shortest-path tree (SPT) are applied to the network to form a composite path. The resulting composite path defines a plurality of closed-loop paths in the network.
