We introduce two new complexity measures for Boolean functions, which we name sumPI and maxPI. The quantity sumPI has been emerging through a line of research on quantum query com...
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...
This paper shows how to build and maintain a distributed heap which we call SHELL. In contrast to standard heaps, our heap is oblivious in the sense that its structure only depends...
Abstract: This paper presents a unified and simple treatment of basic questions concerning two computational models: multiparty communication complexity and polynomials over GF(2)....
We show a tight lower bound of Ω(N log log N) on the number of transmissions required to compute several functions (including the parity function and the majority function) in a...
