Given a set $S$ of $n$ points in the Euclidean plane, the two-center problem is to find two congruent disks of smallest radius whose union covers all points of $S$. Previously, Eppstein [SODA'97] gave a randomized algorithm of $O(n\log^2n)$…
In a sequence of recent results (PODC 2015 and PODC 2016), the running time of the fastest algorithm for the \emph{minimum spanning tree (MST)} problem in the \emph{Congested Clique} model was first improved to $O(\log \log \log n)$ from…

We study a Faulty Congested Clique model, in which an adversary may fail nodes in the network throughout the computation. We show that any task of $O(n\log{n})$-bit input per node can be solved in roughly $n$ rounds, where $n$ is the size…
In this paper, we investigate the leader election problem in diameter-two networks. Recently, Chatterjee et al. [DC 2020] studied the leader election in diameter-two networks. They presented a $O(\log n)$-round deterministic {implicit}…
The Beeping Network (BN) model captures important properties of biological processes. Paradoxically, the extremely limited communication capabilities of such nodes has helped BN become one of the fundamental models for networks. Since in…
We examine sorting algorithms for $n$ elements whose basic operation is comparing $t$ elements simultaneously (a $t$-comparator). We focus on algorithms that use only a single round or two rounds -- comparisons performed in the second round…
For over a decade now we have been witnessing the success of {\em massive parallel computation} (MPC) frameworks, such as MapReduce, Hadoop, Dryad, or Spark. One of the reasons for their success is the fact that these frameworks are able to…
There are distributed graph algorithms for finding maximal matchings and maximal independent sets in $O(\Delta + \log^* n)$ communication rounds; here $n$ is the number of nodes and $\Delta$ is the maximum degree. The lower bound by Linial…
This paper considers the \textit{minimum spanning tree (MST)} problem in the Congested Clique model and presents an algorithm that runs in $O(\log \log \log n)$ rounds, with high probability. Prior to this, the fastest MST algorithm in this…
We present randomized distributed algorithms for the maximal independent set problem (MIS) that, while keeping the time complexity nearly matching the best known, reduce the energy complexity substantially. These algorithms work in the…
We present a deterministic distributed algorithm to compute all-pairs shortest paths(APSP) in an edge-weighted directed or undirected graph. Our algorithm runs in $\tilde{O}(n^{3/2})$ rounds in the Congest model, where $n$ is the number of…
We provide a deterministic scheme for solving any decidable problem in the distributed {sleeping model}. The sleeping model is a generalization of the standard message-passing model, with an additional capability of network nodes to enter a…
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…
We consider the expander routing problem formulated by Ghaffari, Kuhn, and Su (PODC 2017), where the goal is to route all the tokens to their destinations given that each vertex is the source and the destination of at most $\deg(v)$ tokens.…

In this paper we present algorithms for several string problems in the Congested Clique model. In the Congested Clique model, $n$ nodes (computers) are used to solve some problem. The input to the problem is distributed among the nodes, and…
We multiply two $n \times n$ matrices $S,T$ over semirings in the Congested Clique model, where $n$ fully connected nodes communicate synchronously using $O(\log n)$-bit messages, within $O(nz(S)^{1/3} nz(T)^{1/3}/n + 1)$ rounds of…
We consider the following fundamental routing problem. An adversary inputs packets arbitrarily at sources, each packet with an arbitrary destination. Traffic is constrained by link capacities and buffer sizes, and packets may be dropped at…
