    a memory comprising a data structure, the data structure comprising a main graph of interconnected objects comprising a link between each pair of objects that represents a distance measure therebetween; and

    read a query comprising a plurality of input objects;

    locate each input object in the main graph;

    detect a subgraph in the main graph such that a total distance between each input object and a central object of the detected subgraph is minimized by;

    broadcasting a message from each input object located in the main graph,determining which object in the main graph is a first object to receive each message broadcast by each input object, andappointing the first object to be the central object of the subgraph; and
