A Local 2-Approximation Algorithm for the Vertex Cover Problem
We present a distributed 2-approximation algorithm for the minimum vertex cover problem. The algorithm is deterministic, and it runs in (∆ + 1)2 synchronous communication rounds,...

Contention-Sensitive Data Structures and Algorithms
A contention-sensitive data structure is a concurrent data structure in which the overhead introduced by locking is eliminated in the common cases, when there is no contention, or ...

Distributed Discovery of Large Near-Cliques
Given an undirected graph and 0 ≤ ≤ 1, a set of nodes is called -near clique if all but an fraction of the pairs of nodes in the set have a link between them. In this paper we...
