Towards a theory for securing time synchronization in wireless sensor networks
Time synchronization in highly distributed wireless systems like sensor and ad hoc networks is extremely important in order to maintain a consistent notion of time throughout the ...

Stochastic coalescence in logarithmic time
The following distributed coalescence protocol was introduced by Dahlia Malkhi in 2006 motivated by applications in social networking. Initially there are n agents wishing to coal...

MIS on trees
A maximal independent set on a graph is an inclusion-maximal set of mutually non-adjacent nodes. This basic symmetry breaking structure is vital for many distributed algorithms, w...

On Noise-Tolerant Learning of Sparse Parities and Related Problems
We consider the problem of learning sparse parities in the presence of noise. For learning parities on r out of n variables, we give an algorithm that runs in time poly log 1 δ , ...

An experimental study of a simple, distributed edge coloring algorithm
We conduct an experimental analysis of a distributed, randomized algorithm for edge coloring graphs. The algorithm is extremely simple, yet, according to the probabilistic analysi...
