Offline Algorithmic Techniques for Several Content Delivery Problems in Some Restricted Types of Distributed Systems
arXiv:0901.0290
Abstract
In this paper we consider several content delivery problems (broadcast and multicast, in particular) in some restricted types of distributed systems (e.g. optical Grids and wireless sensor networks with tree-like topologies). For each problem we provide efficient algorithmic techniques for computing optimal content delivery strategies. The techniques we present are offline, which means that they can be used only when full information is available and the problem parameters do not fluctuate too much.
