Abstract
Minimum spanning tree can be obtained for undirected connected weighted edges with no negative weight using conventional algorithms such as genetic, Prim’s and Filter-Kruskal. This paper presents a survey on the conventional and the more recent algorithms with different techniques. This survey paper also contains comparisons of MST algorithm and their advantages and limitations.
