New technologies and the deployment of mobile and nomadic services are driving the emergence of complex communications networks that have highly dynamic behaviour. This naturally engenders new route-discovery problems under changing conditions over these networks. Unfortunately, the temporal variations in the network topology are hard to be effectively captured in a classical graph model. In this paper, we use and extend a recently proposed graph theoretic model, which helps capture the evolving characteristic of such networks, in order to compute multicast trees with minimum overall transmission time for a class of wireless mobile dynamic networks. We first show that computing different types of strongly connected components in this model in NP-Complete, and then propose an algorithm to build all rooted directly minimum spanning trees in already identified strongly connected components.
