Near-perfect load balancing by randomized rounding
We consider and analyze a new algorithm for balancing indivisible loads on a distributed network with n processors. The aim is minimizing the discrepancy between the maximum and m...

The round complexity of two-party random selection
We study the round complexity of two-party protocols for generating a random nbit string such that the output is guaranteed to have bounded bias (according to some measure) even i...

Coverage-adaptive random sensor scheduling for application-aware data gathering in wireless sensor networks
Due to the application-specific nature of wireless sensor networks, application-aware algorithm and protocol design paradigms are highly required in order to optimize the overall ...

Randomized Rounding for Routing and Covering Problems: Experiments and Improvements
We investigate how the recently developed different approaches to generate randomized roundings satisfying disjoint cardinality constraints behave when used in two classical algori...

On the bit communication complexity of randomized rumor spreading
We study the communication complexity of rumor spreading in the random phone-call model. Suppose n players communicate in parallel rounds, where in each round every player calls a...
