PAMPA [1] is a lightweight broadcast algorithm that purposely avoids randomisation by combining two known strategies to the problem of ad-hoc broadcast: counting messages, and measuring received signal strength.
One other small thing: it appears to only count messages that are deemed "important" if you're using Priority Inbox.
Indeed, I've not received any likes or messages at all (I'm not counting the message from the app admin who noticed I was a journalist and wanted to see if he could encourage me to write about the app); and just four visits in total to my profile.
Regarding communication cost, which is directly related with the battery life of the wireless devices, we provide a simplifiedf analysis by counting elementary messages, where one elementary message is defined as a scalar value (e.g., one coordinate of one particle).
Counting duplicate messages improves efficiency and is therefore a trait found in many WSN broadcast protocols including PAMPA.
Hence, it can estimate the amount of vehicles or queue length by counting incoming messages and then determine the cycle length of the signal.
To measure the communication cost, we count elementary messages, where one elementary message is defined as simple scalar data.
It was then that Mr. Cullison learned that his wireless company counted each message sent and received as separate items, causing them to build up at least twice as fast as expected.
(WhatsApp counts a message received by group members separately, which is why the received count is higher).
Figure 3: Communication model (adapted from Shannon and Weaver [1949]) As Plato well realises a unary source answers every question all the time with only one message, not with silence or message, since silence counts as a message, as we saw in 2.5, when discussing the nature of secondary information.
They're £6.99, not counting the personalised message from Katie that can be added for only £4.99.
