| Abstract | In this paper we study the important problems of message routing, sorting, and selection in a radio network. A radio network consists of stations where each station is a hand-held device. We consider a single-hop radio network. In a single-hop network it is assumed that each station is within the transmission range of every other station. Let RN(p; k) stand for a single-hop network that has p stations and k communication channels. The problems of sorting and selection have been studied on RN(p; k). For these problems it is assumed that there are n/p elements to start with at each station. At the end of sorting, the least n/p elements should be in the first station, the next smallest n/p elements should be in the second station, and so on. The best known prior algorithm for sorting takes 4n/k +o(n/k) broadcast rounds on a RN(p; k). In this paper we present a randomized algorithm that takes only 3n/k +o(n/k) broadcast rounds with high probability. For the selection problem, it is known that the maximum or minimum element can be found in O(log n) rounds on a RN(n; 1), provided broadcast conflicts can be resolved in O(1) time. The problem of general selection has not been addressed. In this paper we present a randomized selection algorithm that takes O(p/k) rounds on a RN(p; k) with high probability. An important message routing problem that is considered in the literature is one where there are n/p packets originating from each station and there are n/p packets destined for each station. The best known routing algorithms take nearly 2n/k times slots. An important open question has been if there exist algorithms that take only close to n/k time slots. Note that a trivial lower bound for routing is n/k. The existence of such algorithms will be highly relevant especially in emergencies and time critical situations. In this paper we answer this question by presenting a randomized algorithm that takes nearly n/k time slots with high probability. |

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.
