Distributed Colour Reduction Revisited

Distributed, Parallel, and Cluster Computing 2017-09-05 v1 Data Structures and Algorithms

Abstract

We give a new, simple distributed algorithm for graph colouring in paths and cycles. Our algorithm is fast and self-contained, it does not need any globally consistent orientation, and it reduces the number of colours from 1010010^{100} to 33 in three iterations.
