Description

The study of the middle of graphs has numerous real-life applications. In this presentation I will focus on identifying the most logical place to put a Hospital in West Jefferson, OH, using the different measures of the middle of trees. As part of this discussion, I will introduce the importance of the processes of eccentricity, radius, diameter, and status in regard to the graph, in addition to the reasoning behind why each vertex of the graph was chosen. Lastly, I will discuss the significant different between the center of a graph and the median of a graph and distinguish the correct time to use each.
