A Spanning tree of a graph G is a subgraph that is a tree which concludes all of the vertices of G. And a graph G is bipartite if the vertex set of G can be partitioned in to two sets A and B, such that every edge of G joins a vertex of A and a vertex of B. We can see that every tree(including spanning tree) is bipartite. We define type of a spanning tree using this idea as follows: We divide vertices of a spanning trees in to two partitions A and B by using its bipartition. Then, we define type of the spanning tree by (| A |, | B |), provided | A | less than or equal to | B |. We first identify the characteristics for a graph to have a spanning trees of a certain type. Then, implement some theorems about the type.

Problem: How to mechanise tree planting in North American logged sites? Trees are presently hand planted. Preliminary exploration identified the following collection of sub-problems. Vehicle: How to carry tools reliably and cost effectively over rough obstacle strewn ground? Results: U.S.A. - patent granted European Patent Office - patent granted Canada - patent granted The patents cover the main form and mode of operation of a simple but unconventional vehicle. Silvicultural/mechanical: How to mechanise the handling and placement of trees? Results: Two International Patents allowed. They cover a magazine/feed mechanism and a placement mechanism. They form a planting tool. One man guides the vehicle/tool system. An array of planting tools is carried. Two problems arise from the need to make guidance manageable and the planting rate fast enough. Spacing: How to cause the members of a collection of simultaneously operating tools to space themselves appropriately the spacing being driven by machine perceived cues? Choice: How to cause a tool to move to and halt over a plan table spot, tool action being driven by machine perceived cues? Results: One International Patent allowed. Spacing: A conceptual solution is described. Choice: A semi-automatic solution is described. It involves a system of tool guidance and a system of tool set-up, both light guided. Two methods for the detection of light signals in the presence of sunlight have been investigated. Choice-automatic; two solutions have been explored. One uses standard data processing, the other "parallel" processing. Here an idealised device is described which will compare for likeness two two-dimensional patterns.
