Algorithm for Determining Locating-chromatic Number of Trees

The concept of the locating-chromatic number for graphs was introduced by Chartrand et al (2002). Determination of the locating-chromatic number of an arbitrary graph is an NP-complete Problem. This means that there is no efficient algorithm to determine the locating-chromatic number of any given...
