Multipoint Relaying (MPR) is a technique to reduce the number of redundant retransmissions while diffusing a broadcast message in the network, where only a subset of nodes are allowed to forward packets. The selection is based on instantaneous nodes' degrees, and is periodically refreshed. We propose in this chapter a novel heuristic to select kinetic multipoint relays based on nodes' overall predicted degree, which is solely updated on a per-event basis. We illustrate that this approach significantly reduces the number of messages needed to operate the protocol, yet with similar broadcast properties that the regular MPR, such as network coverage, number of multipoint relays, or flooding capacity. ©IFIP International Federation for Information Processing 2009.
