Abstract:
We develop a model for broadcasting data to wireless appliances. Any data item may either be "pushed", or broadcast without waiting for requests for the item, or it may be "pulled", or broadcast in response to a request. Pushing items is cheaper than handling the individual requests, but if pushed items are not wanted, the bandwidth for broadcasting them is wasted. We determine the optimal allocation of bandwidth between pushed and pulled items.
