Swap-Robust and Almost Supermagic Complete Graphs for Dynamical Distributed Storage

To prevent service time bottlenecks in distributed storage systems, the access balancing problem has been studied by designing almost supermagic edge labelings of certain graphs to balance the access requests to different servers. In this paper, we introduce the concept of robustness of edge labelings under limited-magnitude swaps, which is important for studying the dynamical access balancing problem with respect to changes in data popularity. We provide upper and lower bounds on the robustness ratio for complete graphs with $n$ vertices, and construct $O(n)$-almost supermagic labelings that are asymptotically optimal in terms of the robustness ratio.
