Abstract: The complete coloring of 3-regular Halin graphs is studied. A procedure, for completely coloring an 3-regular Halin graph which is not a wheel graph, is proposed. By this procedure, the conclusion that χC(G)=6, where G(≠W4) is a 3-regular Halin graph, can be easily obtained. Furthermore, this implies that the complete coloring of a 3-regular Halin graph can be solved by computer.

Key words: planar graph, Halin graph, complete coloring, complete chromatic number
