Abstract
We introduce the notion of update networks to model communication networks with infinite duration. In our formalization we use bipartite finite graphs and game-theoretic terminology as an underlying structure. For these networks we exhibit a simple routing procedure to update information throughout the nodes of the network. We also introduce an hierarchy for the class of all update networks and discuss the complexity of some natural problems.
