Dynamic connectivity is a well-studied problem, but so far the most compelling progress has been confined to the edge-update model: maintain an understanding of connectivity in an undirected graph, subject to edge insertions and deletions.…
In this paper, we study the graph realization problem in the Congested Clique model of distributed computing under crash faults. We consider {\em degree-sequence realization}, in which each node $v$ is associated with a degree value $d(v)$,…
Inspired by distributed resource allocation problems in dynamic topology networks, we initiate the study of distributed consensus with finite messaging passing. We first find a sufficient condition on the network graph for which no…
Broadcast domination assigns a nonnegative integer power to every vertex of a graph so that every vertex is within the assigned power of some broadcasting vertex, and the objective is to minimize the sum of the powers. Heggernes and…
Recently, several working implementations of in--band full--duplex wireless systems have been presented, where the same node can transmit and receive simultaneously in the same frequency band. The introduction of such a possibility at the…
Given a directed graph and a source vertex, the fully dynamic single-source reachability problem is to maintain the set of vertices that are reachable from the given vertex, subject to edge deletions and insertions. It is one of the most…
Consider a distributed task where the communication network is fixed but the local inputs given to the nodes of the distributed system may change over time. In this work, we explore the following question: if some of the local inputs…
In wireless networks, consisting of battery-powered devices, energy is a costly resource and most of it is spent on transmitting and receiving messages. Broadcast is a problem where a message needs to be transmitted from one node to all…

Broadcasting and convergecasting are pivotal services in distributed systems, in particular, in wireless ad-hoc and sensor networks, which are characterized by time- varying communication graphs. We study the question of whether it is…
The net of N ``physical'' neurons is considered as a dynamical system. These neurons form a complete graph. The state of any neuron is its electric potential. The potential linearly increases until reaches its maximal value. Then it falls…
We study a specialization of the problem of broadcasting on directed acyclic graphs, namely, broadcasting on 2D regular grids. Consider a 2D regular grid with source vertex $X$ at layer $0$ and $k+1$ vertices at layer $k\geq 1$, which are…
Future autonomous systems require wireless connectivity able to support extremely stringent requirements on both latency and reliability. In this paper, we leverage recent developments in the field of finite-blocklength information theory…
In this paper, we focus on the problem of data sharing over a wireless computer network (i.e., a wireless grid). Given a set of available data, we present a distributed algorithm which operates over a dynamically changing network, and…
We consider the on-time transmissions of a sequence of packets over a fading channel.Different from traditional in-time communications, we investigate how many packets can be received $\delta$-on-time, meaning that the packet is received…
A line-broadcasting model in a connected graph $G=(V,E)$, $|V|=n$, is a model in which one vertex, called the {\it originator} of the broadcast holds a message that has to be transmitted to all vertices of the graph through placement of a…
Broadcast is a ubiquitous distributed computing problem that underpins many other system tasks. In static, connected networks, it was recently shown that broadcast is solvable without any node memory and only constant-size messages in…
This paper studies the fundamental communication properties of urban vehicle networks by exploiting the self-similarity and hierarchical organization of modern cities. We use an innovative model called "hyperfractal" that captures the…
Consider the classical problem of information dissemination: one (or more) nodes in a network have some information that they want to distribute to the remainder of the network. In this paper, we study the cost of information dissemination…
Broadcasting algorithms are important building blocks of distributed systems. In this work we investigate the typical performance of the classical and well-studied push model. Assume that initially one node in a given network holds some…
