چکیده

We do a probabilistic analysis of the problem of distributing a single piece of information to the vertices of a graph G. Assuming that the input graph G is Gn,p, we prove an O(lnn/n) upper bound on the edge density needed so that with high probability the information can be broadcast in ⌈log2 n⌉ rounds.

Broadcasting vs. Mixing and Information Dissemination on Cayley Graphs

One frequently studied problem in the context of information dissemination in communication networks is the broadcasting problem. In this paper, we study the following randomized broadcasting protocol: At some time t an information r is placed at one of the nodes of a graph G. In the succeeding steps, each informed node chooses one neighbor, independently and uniformly at random, and informs th...

Approximation Algorithms for Minimum Time Broadcast

This paper deals with the problem of broadcasting in minimum time in the telephone and message-passing models. Approximation algorithms are developed for arbitrary graphs as well as for several restricted graph classes. In particular, an O(vfvT)-additive approximation algorithm is given for broadcasting in general graphs, and an O(log n/ log log n) (multiplicative) ratio approximation is given ...

On Randomized Broadcasting in Power Law Networks

Broadcasting algorithms have various range of applications in different fields of computer science. In this paper we consider randomized broadcasting algorithms in power law graphs which are often used to model large scale real world networks such as the Internet. We prove that for certain (truncated) power law networks there exists a time efficient randomized broadcasting algorithm whose commu...

On the Runtime and Robustness of Randomized Broadcasting

In this paper, we study the following randomized broadcasting protocol. At some time t an information r is placed at one of the nodes of a graph. In the succeeding steps, each informed node chooses one neighbor, independently and uniformly at random, and informs this neighbor by sending a copy of r to it. We begin by developing tight lower and upper bounds on the runtime of the algorithm descri...

On Radio Broadcasting in Random Geometric Graphs

One of the most frequently studied problems in the context of information dissemination in communication networks is the broadcasting problem. In this paper we consider radio broadcasting in random geometric graphs, in which n nodes are placed uniformly at random in [0, √ n], and there is a (directed) edge from a node u to a node v in the corresponding graph iff the distance between u and v is ...
