Parallel Randomized Load Balancing: A Lower Bound for a More General Model
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...

From a static impossibility to an adaptive lower bound: the complexity of early deciding set agreement
Set agreement, where processors decisions constitute a set of outputs, is notoriously harder to analyze than consensus where the decisions are restricted to a single output. This ...

Fast Asynchronous Uniform Consensus in Real-Time Distributed Systems
We investigate whether asynchronous computational models and asynchronous algorithms can be considered for designing real-time distributed fault-tolerant systems. A priori, the lac...

Lower bounds for distributed markov chain problems
We study the worst-case communication complexity of distributed algorithms computing a path problem based on stationary distributions of random walks in a network G with the caveat...

Adaptive randomized algorithm for finding eigenvector of stochastic matrix with application to PageRank
Abstract-- The problem of finding the eigenvector corresponding to the largest eigenvalue of a stochastic matrix has numerous applications in ranking search results, multi-agent co...
