Broadcasting in a communications network has been the subject of many studies in recent years. The studies vary in their assumptions governing the behavior of the network and in their objectives with respect to the network. Almost all the work to date uses the unit transmission time assumption, that

Abstract
We consider the problem of constructing networks with as many nodes as possible, subject to upper bounds on the degree and broadcast time. This paper includes the results of an extensive empirical study of broadcasting in small regular graphs using a stochastic search algorithm to approximate the broadcast time. Significant improvements on known results are obtained for cubic broadcast networks. Β© 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Broadcasting is the task of transmitting a message originated at one processor of a communication network to all other processors in the network. A minimal k-fault-tolerant broadcast network is a communication network on n vertices in which any processor can broadcast in spite of up to k line failur
Some problems related to constrained length connectivity are addressed in this paper. Let S S S l l l (x x x, y y y) be the minimum number of vertices that should be removed to destroy all the paths of length at most l l l between two vertices x x x and y y y. Let I I I l l l (x x x, y y y) be the m
