Considering that most information broadcast services generate data dynamically in practice, we devise in this paper an extended data broadcast mechanism which supports not only the original data broadcast scenario but also the dissemination of dynamic inforamtion services. Furthermore, we design an on-line loan-based slot allocation and feedback technique to tolerate the dynamic changes of broadcast traffic and accordingly perform the adaptation of service classification, bandwidth allocation and broadcast schedule so as to enhance the performance. Our experimental studies show that the extended data broadcast mechanism associated with the loan-based feedback technique is able to achieve a substantial saving in message traffic for dynamic information dissemination in wireless networks.
