Self-Stabilizing Fully Adaptive Maximal Matching

Abstract

A self-stabilizing randomized algorithm for mending maximal matching (MM) in synchronous networks is presented. Starting from a legal MM configuration and assuming that the network undergoes k faults or topology changes (that may occur in multiple batches), the algorithm is guaranteed to stabilize back to a legal MM configuration in time O(log k) in expectation and with high probability (in k), using constant size messages. The algorithm is simple to implement and is uniform in the sense that it does not assume unique identifiers, nor does it assume any global knowledge of the communication graph including its size. It relies on a generic probabilistic phase synchronization technique that may be useful for other self-stabilizing problems. The algorithm compares favorably with the existing self-stabilizing MM algorithms in terms of the dependence of its run-time on k, a.k.a. fully adaptive run-time. In fact, this dependence is asymptotically optimal for uniform algorithms that use constant size messages.

Message Reduction in the LOCAL Model Is a Free Lunch

Authors: Shimon Bitton, Yuval Emek, Taisuke Izumi, and Shay Kutten

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 146, 33rd International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2019)

Abstract

A new spanner construction algorithm is presented, working under the LOCAL model with unique edge IDs. Given an n-node communication graph, a spanner with a constant stretch and O(n^{1 + epsilon}) edges (for an arbitrarily small constant epsilon > 0) is constructed in a constant number of rounds sending O(n^{1 + epsilon}) messages whp. Consequently, we conclude that every t-round LOCAL algorithm can be transformed into an O(t)-round LOCAL algorithm that sends O(t * n^{1 + epsilon}) messages whp. This improves upon all previous message-reduction schemes for LOCAL algorithms that incur a log^{Omega (1)} n blow-up of the round complexity.
