Popis: Generation of all possible spanning trees of a graph is a major area of research in graph theory as the number of spanning trees of a graph increases exponentially with graph size. Several algorithms of varying efficiency have been developed since early 1960s by researchers around the globe. This article is an exhaustive literature survey on these algorithms, assuming the input to be a simple undirected connected graph of finite order, and contains detailed analysis and comparisons in both theoretical and experimental behavior of these algorithms.
