Abstract:

We consider communication in radio networks modeled either as arbitrary graphs or as collections of points in the plane equipped with given rangesof reachability. We survey results concerning the time of broadcasting and gossiping in such networks under different communication scenarios, emphasizing trade-offs between time of communication and the amount of knowledge about the network that is available to nodes.
