In content-oblivious computation, n nodes wish to compute a given task over an asynchronous network that suffers from an extremely harsh type of noise, which corrupts the content of all messages across all channels. In a recent work,…
The content-oblivious model, introduced by Censor-Hillel, Cohen, Gelles, and Sel (PODC 2022; Distributed Computing 2023), captures an extremely weak form of communication where nodes can only send asynchronous, content-less pulses.…

In the content-oblivious (CO) model (proposed by Censor-Hillel et al.), processes inhabit an asynchronous network and communicate only by exchanging pulses. A series of works has clarified the computational power of this model. In…
We address fully-defective asynchronous networks, in which all links are subject to an unlimited number of alteration errors, implying that all messages in the network may be completely corrupted. Despite the possible intuition that such a…

We propose a protocol to solve Leader Election within weak communication models such as the beeping model or the stone-age model. Unlike most previous work, our algorithm operates on only six states, does not require unique identifiers, and…

Leader election is one of the basic problems in distributed computing. For anonymous networks, the task of leader election is formulated as follows: every node v of the network must output a simple path, which is coded as a sequence of port…
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}…
We consider leader election in anonymous radio networks modeled as simple undirected connected graphs. Nodes communicate in synchronous rounds. Nodes are anonymous and execute the same deterministic algorithm, so symmetry can be broken only…
A channel from a process p to a process q satisfies the ADD property if there are constants K and D, unknown to the processes, such that in any sequence of K consecutive messages sent by p to q, at least one of them is delivered to q at…
This paper focuses on compact deterministic self-stabilizing solutions for the leader election problem. When the protocol is required to be \emph{silent} (i.e., when communication content remains fixed from some point in time during any…
