The node-averaged complexity of a distributed algorithm running on a graph $G=(V,E)$ is the average over the times at which the nodes $V$ of $G$ finish their computation and commit to their outputs. We study the node-averaged complexity for…

Consider a collection of random variables attached to the vertices of a graph. The reconstruction problem requires to estimate one of them given `far away' observations. Several theoretical results (and simple algorithms) are available when…
