In this paper we present a randomized parallel algorithm to sample matchings from an almost uniform distribution on the set of matchings of all sizes in a graph. First we prove th...
Uniform random sample is often useful in analyzing data. Usually taking a uniform sample is not a problem if the entire data resides in one location. However, if the data is distr...
—Providing independent uniform samples from a system population poses considerable problems in highly dynamic settings, like P2P systems, where the number of participants and the...

Abstract. We are interested in efficient algorithms for generating random samples from geometric objects such as Riemannian manifolds. As a step in this direction, we consider the ...
Selecting a random peer with uniform probability across a peer-to-peer (P2P) network is a fundamental function for unstructured search, data replication, and monitoring algorithms....
