Abstract. In this paper we propose a linear algorithm for calculating the weighted domination number of a vertex-weighted cactus. The algorithm is based on the well known depth first search (DFS) structure. Our algorithm needs less than 12n+5b additions and 9n+2b min-operations where n is the number of vertices and b is the number of blocks in the cactus.
