In this paper, we present an experimental analysis of the asynchronous push & pull rumour spreading protocol. This protocol is, to date, the best-performing rumour spreading protocol for simple, scalable, and robust information…

We study push-pull rumour spreading in ultra-small-world models for social networks where the degrees follow a power-law distribution. In a non-geometric setting, Fountoulakis, Panagiotou and Sauerwald have shown that rumours always spread…

Randomized rumor spreading is a classical protocol to disseminate information across a network. At SODA 2008, a quasirandom version of this protocol was proposed and competitive bounds for its run-time were proven. This prompts the…

We consider information dissemination in a large $n$-user wireless network in which $k$ users wish to share a unique message with all other users. Each of the $n$ users only has knowledge of its own contents and state information; this…

The wide spread of rumors on social media has caused a negative impact on people's daily life, leading to potential panic, fear, and mental health problems for the public. How to debunk rumors as early as possible remains a challenging…

Gossip algorithms for distributed computation are attractive due to their simplicity, distributed nature, and robustness in noisy and uncertain environments. However, using standard gossip algorithms can lead to a significant waste in…

We propose and analyze a quasirandom analogue of the classical push model for disseminating information in networks ("randomized rumor spreading"). In the classical model, in each round each informed vertex chooses a neighbor at random and…

We study gossip algorithms for the rumor spreading problem which asks each node to deliver a rumor to all nodes in an unknown network. Gossip algorithms allow nodes only to call one neighbor per round and have recently attracted attention…

This paper studies reliability of probabilistic neighbor-aware gossip algorithms over three well- known large-scale random topologies, namely Bernoulli (or Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi) graph, the random geometric graph, and the scale-free graph. We…

Many ad hoc routing protocols are based on some variant of flooding. Despite various optimizations, many routing messages are propagated unnecessarily. We propose a gossiping-based approach, where each node forwards a message with some…

We give a time-randomness tradeoff for the quasi-random rumor spreading protocol proposed by Doerr, Friedrich and Sauerwald [SODA 2008] on complete graphs. In this protocol, the goal is to spread a piece of information originating from one…

The Push, the Pull and the Push&Pull algorithms are well-studied rumor spreading protocols. In all three, in the beginning one node of a graph is informed. In the Push setting, every round every informed node chooses a neighbor uniformly at…

We establish a bound for the classic PUSH-PULL rumor spreading protocol on arbitrary graphs, in terms of the vertex expansion of the graph. We show that O(log^2(n)/\alpha) rounds suffice with high probability to spread a rumor from a single…

In earlier rumor spreading models, at each time step nodes contact all of their neighbors. In more realistic scenario it is possible that a node may contact only some of its neighbors to spread the rumor. Therefore it is must in real world…
