The matrix D = [dij ] is called the detour matrix of G, if dij is the length of longest path between atoms i and j. The sum of all entries above the main diagonal of D is called the detour index of G. In this paper, a new algorithm for computing the detour index of molecular graphs is presented. We apply our algorithm on copper and silver nanoclusters to find their detour index. LA eng UL http://ijmsi.ir/article-1-21-en.html M3 10.7508/ijmsi.2007.02.003 ER -
