For an ordered subset $\beta=\left\{\beta_1, \beta_2, \ldots, \beta_k\right\}$ of vertices and $v$ in a connected graph $G=(V, E)$, the $k$-vector
$$
r(v \mid \beta)=\left(d\left(v, \beta_1\right), d\left(v, \beta_2\right), d\left(v, \beta_k\right)\right)
$$
is the metric representation of vertex $v$ with respect to $\beta$. $\beta$ is a resolving set for $G$ if various vertices of $G$ have different representations with respect to $\beta$. A minimum resolving set is the lowest cardinality resolving set and $\operatorname{dim}(G)$ is the cardinality of the dimension of $G$. A resolving set $B$ of $G$ is connected if the subgraph $\bar{B}$ produced by $B$ is a nontrivial connected subgraph of $G$. The cardinality of the minimal resolving set is the metric dimension of $G$, while the cardinality of the lowest connected resolving set is the connected metric dimension of $G$. A connected metric dimension of $G$, denoted by $\operatorname{cdim}(G)$, is the lowest cardinality of a connected resolving set. The connected resolving number of a graph can be found using the algorithm presented in this work.
