  abstract = {Route and service discovery in wireless multi-hop networks applies flooding or gossip routing to disseminate and gather information. Since packets may get lost, retransmissions of lost packets are required. In many protocols the retransmission timeout is fixed in the protocol specification. In this paper we demonstrate that optimization of the timeout is required in order to ensure proper functioning of flooding schemes. Based on an experimental study, we apply percolation theory and derive analytical models for computing the optimal restart timeout. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive study of gossip routing, percolation, and restart in this context.},
