AbstractWe consider a connected undirected graph $G(n,m)$ with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges. A $k$-dominating set $D$ in $G$ is a set of nodes having the property that every node in $G$ is at most $k$ edges away from at least one node in $D$. Finding a $k$-dominating set of minimum size is NP-hard. We give a new synchronous distributed algorithm to find a $k$-dominating set in $G$ of size no greater than $lfloor n/(k+1) floor$. Our algorithm requires $O(klog^*n)$ time and $O(mlog k+nlog klog^*n)$ messages to run. It has the same time complexity as the best currently known algorithm, but improves on that algorithm’s message complexity and is, in addition, conceptually simpler.
