A source node updates its status as a point process and also forwards its updates to a network of observer nodes. Within the network of observers, these updates are forwarded as point processes from node to node. Each node wishes its…

The convergence of the gossip process has been extensively studied; however, algorithms that generate a set of stochastic matrices, the infinite product of which converges to a rank-one matrix determined by a given weight vector, have been…

We design and analyze gossip algorithms for networks with correlated data. In these networks, either the data to be distributed, the data already available at the nodes, or both, are correlated. This model is applicable for a variety of…

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…

We consider a gossip network, consisting of $n$ nodes, which tracks the information at a source. The source updates its information with a Poisson arrival process and also sends updates to the nodes in the network. The nodes themselves can…

This paper analyzes the adoption of unstructured P2P overlay networks to build publish-subscribe systems. We consider a very simple distributed communication protocol, based on gossip and on the local knowledge each node has about…

Broadcasting and gossiping are fundamental communication tasks in networks. In broadcasting,one node of a network has a message that must be learned by all other nodes. In gossiping, every node has a (possibly different) message, and all…

Consider a network of nodes where each node has a message to communicate to all other nodes. For this communication problem, we analyze a gossip based protocol where coded messages are exchanged. This problem was studied by Aoyama and Shah…

We study different mechanisms of gossip propagation on several network topologies and introduce a new network property, the "spread factor", describing the fraction of neighbors that get to know the gossip. We postulate that for scale-free…
