โœฆ Synopsis


We consider multiple message broadcasting in tree networks. The source (considered as the root of the tree) has k messages which have to be broadcast to all nodes of the tree. In every time unit each node can send one of its already obtained messages to one of its children. A k-message broadcasting scheme prescribes in which time unit a given node should send a message to which child. It is k-optimal if it achieves the smallest possible time for broadcasting k messages from the source to all nodes. We give an algorithm to construct a k-optimal broadcasting scheme for an arbitrary n-node tree. The time complexity of our algorithm is O(nk), i.e., the best possible.

## Abstract The broadcast domination problem is a variant of the classical minimum dominating set problem in which a transmitter of power __p__ at vertex __v__ is capable of dominating (broadcasting to) all vertices within distance __p__ from __v__. Our goal is to assign a broadcast power __f__(__v

The d-dimensional binary hypercube is a very popular model of parallel computation. On the other hand, the execution of many algorithms can be represented by binary trees, making it desirable to simulate binary trees on a hypercube. In this paper, we present a simple one-to-one embedding of arbitrar
