Independent identically distributed positive random variables are used as edge lengths in a given graph, and the length of the minimum spanning tree is investigated. In particular, for a complete bipartite graph \(K_{n,n}\) with the edge lengths uniformly distributed on (0,1), the expected length of the minimum spanning tree is shown to converge to 2.404....
