Figure 12: Illustration of dominates
5.1 Definition of dominates.
Definition [13] p.85
Node A dominates node B iff:
i) h(A) is higher up or at the same height on the tree as h(B) i.e.h(A) ≥ h(B)
ii) it is possible to trace a line from A to B going only downward,
or at most going to one higher node.
Remarks
The first requirement is that A is at a greater height than B. The second re-
quirement restricts the possible downward route from A to B so that it contains
at most one upward segment.
