Information Flow Tracer

This project consisted of a logistical problem-solving system to find the minimum flow route for specific pieces of information between connected nodes which were capable of receiving and storing various types of information. The system was pre-programmed with an XML-based description of the various nodes present in the simulation of a large and complex organisation, together with a description of what forms of information could be transmitted from one node to another.

Given this information, the system was then required to solve the minimum journey distance (in terms of number of nodes traversed) for a given piece of information to reach a specified destination node from a user-supplied starting node.
