A note on 'A New Approach To Compute Wiener Index'

Abstract

In this note, we discuss the method explained in the recent paper [P. Manuel, I. Rajasingh, B. Rajan, R. Sundara Rajan, A New Approach To Compute Wiener Index, Journal of Computational and Theoretical Nanoscience 10, (2013) 1515-1521.] for computing the Wiener index of special chemical graphs. The method is actually already well-known and equivalent to the 'cut method' introduced in 1995 by Klavzar, Gutman and Mohar, and used in multiple papers for computing various distance based graph invariants.
