Problem Definition

A radio network is modeled as a directed, strongly connected graph G with n nodes. The nodes of a network G correspond to transmitting/receiving wireless devices, and directed edges represent their immediately reached neighbors: if a node w is within the transmission range of a node v, then G contains an edge (v, w). We call w an out-neighbor of v and v an in-neighbor of w.

Each node v has a unique label ℓ v from the set [N] = { 1, …, N}, where N = O(n). Initially, each node knows only its label and the values of n and N.

The time is divided into discrete time steps. It is assumed that nodes have unlimited computing power and can perform arbitrary computations within one time step. However, only one transmission or message receipt is allowed in one time step. Each node has its own local...
