Two of the most fundamental distributed symmetry-breaking problems are that of finding a maximal independent set (MIS) and a maximal matching (MM) in a graph. It is a major open question whether these problems can be solved in constant…

A fundamental problem in wireless networks is the \emph{minimum spanning tree} (MST) problem: given a set $V$ of wireless nodes, compute a spanning tree $T$, so that the total cost of $T$ is minimized. In recent years, there has been a lot…
