Partial Gathering of Mobile Agents in Dynamic Tori

Authors: Masahiro Shibata, Naoki Kitamura, Ryota Eguchi, Yuichi Sudo, Junya Nakamura, and Yonghwan Kim

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 257, 2nd Symposium on Algorithmic Foundations of Dynamic Networks (SAND 2023)


Abstract
In this paper, we consider the partial gathering problem of mobile agents in synchronous dynamic tori. The partial gathering problem is a generalization of the (well-investigated) total gathering problem, which requires that all k agents distributed in the network terminate at a non-predetermined single node. The partial gathering problem requires, for a given positive integer g (< k), that agents terminate in a configuration such that either at least g agents or no agent exists at each node. So far, in almost cases, the partial gathering problem has been considered in static graphs. As only one exception, it is considered in a kind of dynamic rings called 1-interval connected rings, that is, one of the links in the ring may be missing at each time step. In this paper, we consider partial gathering in another dynamic topology. Concretely, we consider it in n× n dynamic tori such that each of row rings and column rings is represented as a 1-interval connected ring. In such networks, when k = O(gn), focusing on the relationship between the values of k, n, and g, we aim to characterize the solvability of the partial gathering problem and analyze the move complexity of the proposed algorithms when the problem can be solved. First, we show that agents cannot solve the problem when k = o(gn), which means that Ω (gn) agents are necessary to solve the problem. Second, we show that the problem can be solved with the total number of O(gn³) moves when 2gn+2n-1 ≤ k ≤ 2gn + 6n +16g -12. Finally, we show that the problem can be solved with the total number of O(gn²) moves when k ≥ 2gn + 6n +16g -11. From these results, we show that our algorithms can solve the partial gathering problem in dynamic tori with the asymptotically optimal number Θ (gn) of agents. In addition, we show that agents require a total number of Ω(gn²) moves to solve the partial gathering problem in dynamic tori when k = Θ(gn). Thus, when k ≥ 2gn+6n+16g -11, our algorithm can solve the problem with asymptotically optimal number O(gn²) of agent moves.

Time-Optimal Loosely-Stabilizing Leader Election in Population Protocols

Authors: Yuichi Sudo, Ryota Eguchi, Taisuke Izumi, and Toshimitsu Masuzawa

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 209, 35th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2021)


Abstract
We consider the leader election problem in the population protocol model. In pragmatic settings of population protocols, self-stabilization is a highly desired feature owing to its fault resilience and the benefit of initialization freedom. However, the design of self-stabilizing leader election is possible only under a strong assumption (i.e., the knowledge of the exact size of a network) and rich computational resource (i.e., the number of states). Loose-stabilization is a promising relaxed concept of self-stabilization to address the aforementioned issue. Loose-stabilization guarantees that starting from any configuration, the network will reach a safe configuration where a single leader exists within a short time, and thereafter it will maintain the single leader for a long time, but not necessarily forever. The main contribution of this paper is giving a time-optimal loosely-stabilizing leader election protocol. The proposed protocol with design parameter τ ≥ 1 attains O(τ log n) parallel convergence time and Ω(n^τ) parallel holding time (i.e., the length of the period keeping the unique leader), both in expectation. This protocol is time-optimal in the sense of both the convergence and holding times in expectation because any loosely-stabilizing leader election protocol with the same length of the holding time is known to require Ω(τ log n) parallel time.

Brief Announcement
Brief Announcement: Fast Aggregation in Population Protocols

Authors: Ryota Eguchi and Taisuke Izumi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 91, 31st International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2017)


Abstract
The coalescence protocol plays an important role in the population protocol model. The conceptual structure of the protocol is for two agents holding two non-zero values a, b respectively to take a transition (a,b) -> (a+b, 0), where + is an arbitrary commutative binary operation. Obviously, it eventually aggregates the sum of all initial values. In this paper, we present a fast coalescence protocol that converges in O(sqrt(n) log^2 n) parallel time with high probability in the model with an initial leader (equivalently, the model with a base station), which achieves an substantial speed-up compared with the naive implementation taking Omega(n) time.
