Abstract

Most of the prior research works in data broadcasting are based on the assumption that the disseminated items are independent of one another. Since in many applications, a mobile user will be interested in more than one item simultaneously, we discuss in this paper the issue of dependency in generating a broadcast program. Algorithm PBA, standing for Placement-Based Allocation, is proposed to generate a broadcast program with high quality and low complexity in the dependent data broadcasting environment. The experimental results show that the proposed placement-based allocation for scheduling dependent items leads to better execution efficiency and solution quality than those by prior works.
