A Linear-Time Optimal Broadcasting Algorithm in Stars of Cliques

Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2024

For the telephone broadcast model, an O(n log n)-time algorithm for constructing an optimal broadcasting scheme in a star of cliques with a total of vertices was recently presented by Ambashankar and Harutyunyan at IWOCA 2024. In the present note we give a considerably shorter and purified algorithm description and correctness proof. Moreover, we improve the time complexity to O(n).
