We investigate adjacency labeling schemes for graphs of bounded degree $\Delta = O(1)$. In particular, we present an optimal (up to an additive constant) $\log n + O(1)$ adjacency labeling scheme for bounded degree trees. The latter scheme…
An L(2,1)-labeling of a graph $G$ is an assignment $f$ from the vertex set $V(G)$ to the set of nonnegative integers such that $|f(x)-f(y)|\ge 2$ if $x$ and $y$ are adjacent and $|f(x)-f(y)|\ge 1$ if $x$ and $y$ are at distance 2, for all…
We suggest a method for routing when the source does not posses full information about the shortest path to the destination. The method is particularly useful for scale-free networks, and exploits its unique characteristics. By assigning…
We consider the fundamental problems of size discovery and topology recognition in radio networks modeled by simple undirected connected graphs. Size discovery calls for all nodes to output the number of nodes in the graph, called its size,…
One model of message delivery in a computer network is based on labelling each edge by a subset of a (reasonably small) universal set, and then encoding a path as the union of the labels of its edges. Earlier work suggested using random…
Leader election is a basic symmetry breaking problem in distributed computing. All nodes of a network have to agree on a single node, called the leader. If the nodes of the network have distinct labels, then agreeing on a single node means…
Routing tables in ad hoc and wireless routing protocols can be represented using rooted trees. The constant need for communication and storage of these trees in routing protocols demands an efficient rooted tree coding algorithm. This…
Boundary labeling is a well-known method for displaying short textual labels for a set of point features in a figure alongside the boundary of that figure. Labels and their corresponding points are connected via crossing-free leaders. We…
The paper presents fault-tolerant (FT) labeling schemes for general graphs, as well as, improved FT routing schemes. For a given $n$-vertex graph $G$ and a bound $f$ on the number of faults, an $f$-FT connectivity labeling scheme is a…
We consider NCA labeling schemes: given a rooted tree $T$, label the nodes of $T$ with binary strings such that, given the labels of any two nodes, one can determine, by looking only at the labels, the label of their nearest common…
A distance labeling scheme labels the $n$ nodes of a graph with binary strings such that, given the labels of any two nodes, one can determine the distance in the graph between the two nodes by looking only at the labels. A $D$-preserving…
The number of nodes of a network, called its size, and the largest distance between nodes of a network, called its diameter, are among the most important network parameters. Knowing the size and/or diameter is a prerequisite of many…
We present a complete classification of the deterministic distributed time complexity for a family of graph problems: binary labeling problems in trees. These are locally checkable problems that can be encoded with an alphabet of size two…
Sorting is a foundational problem in computer science that is typically employed on sequences or total orders. More recently, a more general form of sorting on partially ordered sets (or posets), where some pairs of elements are…
We consider the problem of estimating the conditional probability of a label in time $O(\log n)$, where $n$ is the number of possible labels. We analyze a natural reduction of this problem to a set of binary regression problems organized in…
In this paper, we re-evaluate the basic strategies for label correcting algorithms for the multiobjective shortest path (MOSP) problem, i.e., node and label selection. In contrast to common believe, we show that---when carefully…
Consider any locally checkable labeling problem $\Pi$ in rooted regular trees: there is a finite set of labels $\Sigma$, and for each label $x \in \Sigma$ we specify what are permitted label combinations of the children for an internal node…
We consider the problem of estimating the conditional probability of a label in time O(log n), where n is the number of possible labels. We analyze a natural reduction of this problem to a set of binary regression problems organized in a…
We consider two fundamental communication tasks in arbitrary radio networks: broadcasting (information from one source has to reach all nodes) and gossiping (every node has a message and all messages have to reach all nodes). Nodes are…
An ordered labeled tree is a tree in which the nodes are labeled and the left-to-right order among siblings is relevant. The edit distance between two ordered labeled trees is the minimum cost of changing one tree into the other through a…
