Clock Synchronization with Bounded Global and Local Skew
We present a distributed clock synchronization algorithm that guarantees an exponentially improved bound of O(log D) on the clock skew between neighboring nodes in any graph G of ...

What Is the Use of Collision Detection (in Wireless Networks)?
We show that the asymptotic gain in the time complexity when using collision detection depends heavily on the task by investigating three prominent problems for wireless networks,...

On the geometry of graphs with a forbidden minor
We study the topological simplification of graphs via random embeddings, leading ultimately to a reduction of the Gupta-Newman-Rabinovich-Sinclair (GNRS) L1 embedding conjecture t...

Local Algorithms for Approximate Inference in Minor-Excluded Graphs
We present a new local approximation algorithm for computing MAP and logpartition function for arbitrary exponential family distribution represented by a finite-valued pair-wise ...

Concurrent counting is harder than queuing
In both distributed counting and queuing, processors in a distributed system issue operations which are organized into a total order. In counting, each processor receives the rank...
