In the load balancing problem, the input is an $n$-vertex bipartite graph $G = (C \cup S, E)$ and a positive weight for each client $c \in C$. The algorithm must assign each client $c \in C$ to an adjacent server $s \in S$. The load of a…

We study the possibility of designing $N^{o(1)}$-round protocols for problems of substantially super-linear polynomial-time (sequential) complexity in the model of Massively Parallel Computation, where $N$ is the input size. We show that if…

We consider geometric problems on planar $n^2$-point sets in the congested clique model. Initially, each node in the $n$-clique network holds a batch of $n$ distinct points in the Euclidean plane given by $O(\log n)$-bit coordinates. In…

We are given a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, where a random subset of $k$ vertices has been made into a clique, and the remaining edges are chosen independently with probability $\tfrac12$. This random graph model is denoted…

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…

The CONGEST and CONGEST-CLIQUE models have been carefully studied to represent situations where the communication bandwidth between processors in a network is severely limited. Messages of only $O(log(n))$ bits of information each may be…

Consider a clique of n nodes, where in each synchronous round each pair of nodes can exchange O(log n) bits. We provide deterministic constant-time solutions for two problems in this model. The first is a routing problem where each node is…

We study local symmetry breaking problems in the CONGEST model, focusing on ruling set problems, which generalize the fundamental Maximal Independent Set (MIS) problem. A $\beta$-ruling set is an independent set such that every node in the…

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…
