We extend the lower bound of Adler et. al [1] and Berenbrink [3] for parallel randomized load balancing algorithms. The setting in these asynchronous and distributed algorithms is...
It is well known that after placing n balls independently and uniformly at random into n bins, the fullest bin holds (logn=log logn) balls with high probability. Recently, Azar et...

We introduce several generalizations of classical computer science problems obtained by replacing simpler objective functions with general submodular functions. The new problems i...
We analyze the performance of protocols for load balancing in distributed systems based on no-regret algorithms from online learning theory. These protocols treat load balancing a...
Switching cells in parallel is a common approach to build switches with very high external line rate and a large number of ports. A prime example is the parallel packet switch (in...
