Scheduling techniques for communication applications using receiver directed broadcast schemes are disclosed. The invention includes techniques for the implicit reservation of receive slots and techniques for the optimization of receiver directed broadcast schedules. The implicit reservation scheme includes the mechanics of implicit reservation. Implicitly reserved slots can be reclaimed by their owners. Further, simultaneous implicit reservations can be identified and resolved. Procedures are also provided for determining the number of channels and slots required to optimize a receiver directed broadcast schedule for a neighborhood of a given number of nodes.
