We consider the transmission of a state from the root of a tree towards its leaves, assuming that each transmission occurs through a noisy channel. The states at the leaves are observed, while at deeper nodes we can compute the likelihood…
A multi-hop synchronous wirelss network is said to be unknown if the nodes have no knowledge of the topology. A basic task in wireless network is that of broadcasting a message (created by a fixed source node) to all nodes of the network.…
In this paper, we consider a broadcasting process in which information is propagated from a given root node on a noisy tree network, and answer the question that whether the symbols at the nth level of the tree contain non-vanishing…
In this paper we improve the deterministic complexity of two fundamental communication primitives in the classical model of ad-hoc radio networks with unknown topology: broadcasting and wake-up. We consider an unknown radio network, in…

This paper considers fully dynamic graph algorithms with both faster worst case update time and sublinear space. The fully dynamic graph connectivity problem is the following: given a graph on a fixed set of n nodes, process an online…
We revisit the classic broadcast problem, wherein we have $k$ messages, each composed of $O(\log{n})$ bits, distributed arbitrarily across a network. The objective is to broadcast these messages to all nodes in the network. In the…
Broadcasting problem is an important issue in the wireless networks, especially in dynamic wireless networks. In dynamic wireless networks the node density and mobility is high, due to several problems which arise during broadcasting. Two…
We consider a dynamical linear network where nearest neighbours communicate via links whose states form binary (open/closed) valued independent and identically distributed Markov processes. Our main result is the tight information-theoretic…
We present a randomized distributed algorithm that in radio networks with collision detection broadcasts a single message in $O(D+\log^2 n)$ time slots, with high probability. In view of the lower-bound $\Omega(D+\log^2 n)$, our algorithm…
Tree-based phylogenetic networks, which may be roughly defined as leaf-labeled networks built by adding arcs only between the original tree edges, have elegant properties for modeling evolutionary histories. We answer an open question of…
We consider wireless networks operating under the SINR model of interference. Nodes have limited individual knowledge and capabilities: they do not know their positions in a coordinate system in the plane, further they do not know their…
Dynamic trees are mixtures of tree structured belief networks. They solve some of the problems of fixed tree networks at the cost of making exact inference intractable. For this reason approximate methods such as sampling or mean field…
In the dynamic network model, the communication graph is assumed to be connected in every round but is otherwise arbitrary. We consider the related setting of $p$-partitioned dynamic networks, in which the communication graph in each round…
We study information gathering in ad-hoc radio networks. Initially, each node of the network has a piece of information called a rumor, and the overall objective is to gather all these rumors in the designated target node. The ad-hoc…
The Min Energy broadcast problem consists in assigning transmission ranges to the nodes of an ad-hoc network in order to guarantee a directed spanning tree from a given source node and, at the same time, to minimize the energy consumption…
As the use of wireless sensor networks increases, the need for efficient and reliable broadcasting algorithms grows. Ideally, a broadcasting algorithm should have the ability to quickly disseminate data, while keeping the number of…
