•The protocol FIDFID builds in self-stabilizing manner distance-k independent dominating sets.•The protocol FIDFID is silent, fast and simple.•The protocol FIDFID works properly under any schedule.•The correctness and the termination of the protocol FIDFID is proven.•The convergence time to reach a legitimate configuration is established: 4n+k4n+k where n is the network size.
We propose a fast, silent self-stabilizing protocol building a distance-k independent dominating set, named FIDFID. The convergence of the protocol FIDFID is established for any computation under the unfair distributed scheduler. The protocol FIDFID reaches a terminal (also legitimate) configuration in at most 4n+k4n+k rounds, where n is the network size; it requires (k+1)log(n+1)(k+1)log(n+1) bits per node.
