| Abstract | The paper studies broadcasting in radio networks whose stations are represented by points in the Euclidean plane. In any given time step, a station can either receive or transmit. A message transmitted from station (v) is delivered to every station (u) at distance at most (1) from (v), but (u) successfully hears the message if and only if (v) is the only station at distance at most (1) from (u) that transmitted in this time step. A designated source station has a message that should be disseminated throughout the network. All stations other than the source are initially idle and wake up upon the first time they hear the source message. It is shown in [11] that the time complexity of broadcasting depends on two parameters of the network, namely, its diameter (in hops) (D) and a lower bound (d) on the Euclidean distance between any two stations. The inverse of (d) is called the granularity of the network, denoted by (g). Specifically, the authors of [11] present a broadcasting algorithm that works in time (O (D g)) and prove that every broadcasting algorithm requires Ω (D √g) time. In this paper, we distinguish between the arbitrary deployment setting, originally studied in [11], in which stations can be placed everywhere in the plane, and the new grid deployment setting, in which stations are only allowed to be placed on a (d)-spaced grid. Does the latter (more restricted) setting provides any speedup in broadcasting time complexity? Although the (O (D g)) broadcasting algorithm of [11] works under the (original) arbitrary deployment setting, it turns out that the Ω (D √g) lower bound remains valid under the grid deployment setting. Still, the above question is left unanswered. The current paper answers this question affirmatively by presenting a provable separation between the two deployment settings. We establish a tight lower bound on the time complexity of broadcasting under the arbitrary deployment setting proving that broadcasting cannot be completed in less than Ω ( D √g) time. For the grid deployment setting, we develop a broadcasting algorithm that runs in time O ( D g5 / 6 log g), thus breaking the linear dependency on (g). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
