چکیده

Gossiping is the process of information diiusion in which each node of a network holds a packet that must be communicated to all other nodes in the network. We consider the problem of gossiping in communication networks under the restriction that communicating nodes can exchange up to a xed number p of packets at each round. In the rst part of the paper we study the extremal case p = 1 and we exactly determine the optimal number of communication rounds to perform gossiping for several classes of graphs, including Hamiltonian graphs and complete k-ary trees. For arbitrary graphs we give asymptotically matching upper and lower bounds. We also study the case of arbitrary p and we exactly determine the optimal number of communication rounds to perform gossiping under this hypothesis for complete graphs, hypercubes, rings, and paths.

Fast gossiping with short unreliable messages

Each of n nodes of a communication network has a piece of information (gossip) which should be made known to all other nodes. Gossiping is done by sending letters. In a unit of time each node can either send one letter to a neighbor or receive one such letter, containing one gossip currently known to the sender. Letters reach their destinations with constant probability 0 < q < 1, independently...

Deterministic Broadcasting and Gossiping with Beeps

Broadcasting and gossiping are fundamental communication tasks in networks. In broadcasting, one node of a network has a message that must be learned by all other nodes. In gossiping, every node has a (possibly different) message, and all messages must be learned by all nodes. We study these well-researched tasks in a very weak communication model, called the beeping model. Communication procee...

Optimal Sequential Gossiping by Short Messages

Gossiping is the process of information diiusion in which each node of a network holds a block that must be communicated to all the other nodes in the network. We consider the problem of gossiping in communication networks under the restriction that communicating nodes can exchange up to a xed number p of blocks during each call. We study the minimum number of calls necessary to perform gossipi...

Circuit-switched gossiping in the 3-dimensional torus networks

in this paper we describe, in the case of short messages, an efficient gossiping algorithm for 3-dimensional torus networks (wrap-around or toroidal meshes) that uses synchronous circuitswitched routing. The algorithm is based on a recursive decomposition of a torus. The algorithm requires an optimal number of rounds and a quasi-optimal number of intermediate switch settings to gossip in an 7i ...

Circuit-Switched Gossiping in 3-Dimensional Torus Networks

In this paper we describe an eecient gossiping algorithm for short messages into the 3?dimensional torus networks (wrap-around or toroidal meshes) that uses synchronous circuit-switched routing. The algorithm is based on a recursive decomposition of a torus. It requires an optimal number of rounds and a quasi-optimal number of intermediate switch settings to gossip in a 7 i 7 i 7 i torus network.
