The rendezvous problem requires that all the agents in the system have to meet at a single node within a finite time. We first prove that at least Ω(n) memory size per agent is required to solve the rendezvous problem in O(n) time where n is the number of nodes. Next, we present the rendezvous algorithm which terminates in O(n) time. The space complexity of this algorithm is also O(n) per agent. From this lower/upper bound, Θ(n) memory size per agent is necessary and sufficient to solve the problem in O(n) time (asymptotically time-optimal). Finally, we present the asymptotically space-optimal rendezvous algorithm. This algorithm has space complexity O(log n) and time complexity O(Δn8) where Δ is the maximum degree of the tree.This paper reveals the relation between the time complexity and the space complexity for the rendezvous problem with k agents in asynchronous tree networks.
