Experimental studies have shown that electing a leader based on measurements of the underlying communication network can be beneficial. We use this approach to study the problem ...
This paper presents a scalable leader election protocol for large process groups with a weak membership requirement. The underlying network is assumed to be unreliable but characte...

This paper considers the problem of electing an eventual leader in an asynchronous shared memory system. While this problem has received a lot of attention in messagepassing syste...
—Loop networks (or Hamiltonian circulant graphs) are a popular class of fault-tolerant network topologies which include rings and complete graphs. For this class, the fundamental...
We obtain the strongest separation between quantum and classical query complexity known to date--specifically, we define a black-box problem that requires exponentially many querie...
