Broadcast and Consensus in Stochastic Dynamic Networks with Byzantine Nodes and Adversarial Edges

Authors: Antoine El-Hayek, Monika Henzinger, and Stefan Schmid

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 319, 38th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2024)

Abstract
Broadcast and Consensus are most fundamental tasks in distributed computing. These tasks are particularly challenging in dynamic networks where communication across the network links may be unreliable, e.g., due to mobility or failures. Over the last years, researchers have derived several impossibility results and high time complexity lower bounds for these tasks. Specifically for the setting where in each round of communication the adversary is allowed to choose one rooted tree along which the information is disseminated, there is a lower as well as an upper bound that is linear in the number n of nodes for Broadcast and for n ≥ 3 the adversary can guarantee that Consensus never happens. This setting is called the oblivious message adversary for rooted trees. Also note that if the adversary is allowed to choose a graph that does not contain a rooted tree, then it can guarantee that Broadcast and Consensus will never happen. However, such deterministic adversarial models may be overly pessimistic, as many processes in real-world settings are stochastic in nature rather than worst-case. This paper studies Broadcast on stochastic dynamic networks and shows that the situation is very different to the deterministic case. In particular, we show that if information dissemination occurs along random rooted trees and directed Erdős–Rényi graphs, Broadcast completes in O(log n) rounds of communication with high probability. The fundamental insight in our analysis is that key variables are mutually independent. We then study two adversarial models, (a) one with Byzantine nodes and (b) one where an adversary controls the edges. (a) Our techniques without Byzantine nodes are general enough so that they can be extended to Byzantine nodes. (b) In the spirit of smoothed analysis, we introduce the notion of randomized oblivious message adversary, where in each round, an adversary picks k ≤ 2n/3 edges to appear in the communication network, and then a graph (e.g. rooted tree or directed Erdős–Rényi graph) is chosen uniformly at random among the set of all such graphs that include these edges. We show that Broadcast completes in a finite number of rounds, which is, e.g., O(k+log n) rounds in rooted trees. We then extend these results to All-to-All Broadcast, and Consensus, and give lower bounds that show that most of our upper bounds are tight.

The Power of Abstract MAC Layer: A Fault-Tolerance Perspective

Authors: Qinzi Zhang and Lewis Tseng

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 319, 38th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2024)

Abstract
This paper studies the power of the "abstract MAC layer" model in a single-hop asynchronous network. The model captures primitive properties of modern wireless MAC protocols. In this model, Newport [PODC '14] proves that it is impossible to achieve deterministic consensus when nodes may crash. Subsequently, Newport and Robinson [DISC '18] present randomized consensus algorithms that terminate with O(n³ log n) expected broadcasts in a system of n nodes. We are not aware of any results on other fault-tolerant distributed tasks in this model. We first study the computability aspect of the abstract MAC layer. We present a wait-free algorithm that implements an atomic register. Furthermore, we show that in general, k-set consensus is impossible. Second, we aim to minimize storage complexity. Existing algorithms require Ω(n log n) bits. We propose two wait-free approximate consensus and two wait-free randomized binary consensus algorithms that only need constant storage complexity (except for the phase index). One randomized algorithm terminates with O(n log n) expected broadcasts. All our algorithms are anonymous, meaning that at the algorithm level, nodes do not need to have a unique identifier.

Bicriterial Approximation for the Incremental Prize-Collecting Steiner-Tree Problem

Authors: Yann Disser, Svenja M. Griesbach, Max Klimm, and Annette Lutz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 308, 32nd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2024)

Abstract
We consider an incremental variant of the rooted prize-collecting Steiner-tree problem with a growing budget constraint. While no incremental solution exists that simultaneously approximates the optimum for all budgets, we show that a bicriterial (α,μ)-approximation is possible, i.e., a solution that with budget B+α for all B ∈ ℝ_{≥ 0} is a multiplicative μ-approximation compared to the optimum solution with budget B. For the case that the underlying graph is a tree, we present a polynomial-time density-greedy algorithm that computes a (χ,1)-approximation, where χ denotes the eccentricity of the root vertex in the underlying graph, and show that this is best possible. An adaptation of the density-greedy algorithm for general graphs is (γ,2)-competitive where γ is the maximal length of a vertex-disjoint path starting in the root. While this algorithm does not run in polynomial time, it can be adapted to a (γ,3)-competitive algorithm that runs in polynomial time. We further devise a capacity-scaling algorithm that guarantees a (3χ,8)-approximation and, more generally, a ((4𝓁 - 1)χ, (2^{𝓁 + 2})/(2^𝓁 -1))-approximation for every fixed 𝓁 ∈ ℕ.

Towards Communication-Efficient Peer-To-Peer Networks

Authors: Khalid Hourani, William K. Moses Jr., and Gopal Pandurangan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 308, 32nd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2024)

Abstract
We focus on designing Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks that enable efficient communication. Over the last two decades, there has been substantial algorithmic research on distributed protocols for building P2P networks with various desirable properties such as high expansion, low diameter, and robustness to a large number of deletions. A key underlying theme in all of these works is to distributively build a random graph topology that guarantees the above properties. Moreover, the random connectivity topology is widely deployed in many P2P systems today, including those that implement blockchains and cryptocurrencies. However, a major drawback of using a random graph topology for a P2P network is that the random topology does not respect the underlying (Internet) communication topology. This creates a large propagation delay, which is a major communication bottleneck in modern P2P networks. In this paper, we work towards designing P2P networks that are communication-efficient (having small propagation delay) with provable guarantees. Our main contribution is an efficient, decentralized protocol, Close-Weaver, that transforms a random graph topology embedded in an underlying Euclidean space into a topology that also respects the underlying metric. We then present efficient point-to-point routing and broadcast protocols that achieve essentially optimal performance with respect to the underlying space.

Competitive Capacitated Online Recoloring

Authors: Rajmohan Rajaraman and Omer Wasim

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 308, 32nd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2024)

Abstract
In this paper, we revisit the online recoloring problem introduced recently by Azar, Machluf, Patt-Shamir and Touitou [Azar et al., 2022] to investigate algorithmic challenges that arise while scheduling virtual machines or processes in distributed systems and cloud services. In online recoloring, there is a fixed set V of n vertices and an initial coloring c₀: V → [k] for some k ∈ ℤ^{> 0}. Under an online sequence σ of requests where each request is an edge (u_t,v_t), a proper vertex coloring c of the graph G_t induced by requests until time t needs to be maintained for all t; i.e., for any (u,v) ∈ G_t, c(u)≠ c(v). In the distributed systems application, a vertex corresponds to a VM, an edge corresponds to the requirement that the two endpoint VMs be on different clusters, and a coloring is an allocation of VMs to clusters. The objective is to minimize the total weight of vertices recolored for the sequence σ. In [Azar et al., 2022], the authors give competitive algorithms for two polynomially tractable cases - 2-coloring for bipartite G_t and (Δ+1)-coloring for Δ-degree G_t - and lower bounds for the fully dynamic case where G_t can be arbitrary. We obtain the first competitive algorithms for capacitated online recoloring and fully dynamic recoloring, in which there is a bound on the number or weight of vertices in each color. Our first set of results is for 2-recoloring using algorithms that are (1+ε)-resource augmented where ε ∈ (0,1) is an arbitrarily small constant. Our main result is an O(log n)-competitive deterministic algorithm for weighted bipartite graphs, which is asymptotically optimal in light of an Ω(log n) lower bound that holds for an unbounded amount of augmentation. We also present an O(nlog n)-competitive deterministic algorithm for fully dynamic recoloring, which is optimal within an O(log n) factor in light of a Ω(n) lower bound that holds for an unbounded amount of augmentation. Our second set of results is for Δ-recoloring in an (1+ε)-overprovisioned setting where the maximum degree of G_t is bounded by (1-ε)Δ for all t, and each color assigned to at most (1+ε)n/(Δ) vertices, for an arbitrary ε > 0. Our main result is an O(1)-competitive randomized algorithm for Δ = O(√{n/log n}). We also present an O(Δ)-competitive deterministic algorithm for Δ ≤ ε n/2. Both results are asymptotically optimal.

Universal Optimization for Non-Clairvoyant Subadditive Joint Replenishment

Authors: Tomer Ezra, Stefano Leonardi, Michał Pawłowski, Matteo Russo, and Seeun William Umboh

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 317, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2024)

Abstract
The online joint replenishment problem (JRP) is a fundamental problem in the area of online problems with delay. Over the last decade, several works have studied generalizations of JRP with different cost functions for servicing requests. Most prior works on JRP and its generalizations have focused on the clairvoyant setting. Recently, Touitou [Noam Touitou, 2023] developed a non-clairvoyant framework that provided an O(√{n log n}) upper bound for a wide class of generalized JRP, where n is the number of request types. We advance the study of non-clairvoyant algorithms by providing a simpler, modular framework that matches the competitive ratio established by Touitou for the same class of generalized JRP. Our key insight is to leverage universal algorithms for Set Cover to approximate arbitrary monotone subadditive functions using a simple class of functions termed disjoint. This allows us to reduce the problem to several independent instances of the TCP Acknowledgement problem, for which a simple 2-competitive non-clairvoyant algorithm is known. The modularity of our framework is a major advantage as it allows us to tailor the reduction to specific problems and obtain better competitive ratios. In particular, we obtain tight O(√n)-competitive algorithms for two significant problems: Multi-Level Aggregation and Weighted Symmetric Subadditive Joint Replenishment. We also show that, in contrast, Touitou’s algorithm is Ω(√{n log n})-competitive for both of these problems.

Scheduling Splittable Jobs on Configurable Machines

Authors: Matthew Casey, Rajmohan Rajaraman, David Stalfa, and Cheng Tan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 317, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2024)

Abstract
Motivated by modern architectures allowing for the partitioning of a GPU into hardware separated instances, we initiate the study of scheduling splittable jobs on configurable machines. We consider machines that can be configured into smaller instances, which we call blocks, in multiple ways, each of which is referred to as a configuration. We introduce the Configurable Machine Scheduling (cms) problem, where we are given n jobs and a set C of configurations. A schedule consists of a set of machines, each assigned some configuration in C with each block in the configuration assigned to process one job. The amount of a job’s demand that is satisfied by a block is given by an arbitrary function of the job and block. The objective is to construct a schedule using as few machines as possible. We provide a tight logarithmic factor approximation algorithm for this problem in the general setting, a factor (3 + ε) approximation algorithm for arbitrary ε > 0 when there are O(1) input configurations, and a polynomial time approximation scheme when both the number and size of configurations are O(1). Finally, we utilize a technique for finding conic integer combinations in fixed dimension to develop an optimal polynomial time algorithm in the case with O(1) jobs, O(1) blocks, and every configuration up to a given size.

Fully-Scalable MPC Algorithms for Clustering in High Dimension

Authors: Artur Czumaj, Guichen Gao, Shaofeng H.-C. Jiang, Robert Krauthgamer, and Pavel Veselý

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)

Abstract
We design new parallel algorithms for clustering in high-dimensional Euclidean spaces. These algorithms run in the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model, and are fully scalable, meaning that the local memory in each machine may be n^σ for arbitrarily small fixed σ > 0. Importantly, the local memory may be substantially smaller than the number of clusters k, yet all our algorithms are fast, i.e., run in O(1) rounds. We first devise a fast MPC algorithm for O(1)-approximation of uniform Facility Location. This is the first fully-scalable MPC algorithm that achieves O(1)-approximation for any clustering problem in general geometric setting; previous algorithms only provide poly(log n)-approximation or apply to restricted inputs, like low dimension or small number of clusters k; e.g. [Bhaskara and Wijewardena, ICML'18; Cohen-Addad et al., NeurIPS'21; Cohen-Addad et al., ICML'22]. We then build on this Facility Location result and devise a fast MPC algorithm that achieves O(1)-bicriteria approximation for k-Median and for k-Means, namely, it computes (1+ε)k clusters of cost within O(1/ε²)-factor of the optimum for k clusters. A primary technical tool that we introduce, and may be of independent interest, is a new MPC primitive for geometric aggregation, namely, computing for every data point a statistic of its approximate neighborhood, for statistics like range counting and nearest-neighbor search. Our implementation of this primitive works in high dimension, and is based on consistent hashing (aka sparse partition), a technique that was recently used for streaming algorithms [Czumaj et al., FOCS'22].

Simultaneously Approximating All 𝓁_p-Norms in Correlation Clustering

Authors: Sami Davies, Benjamin Moseley, and Heather Newman

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)

Abstract
This paper considers correlation clustering on unweighted complete graphs. We give a combinatorial algorithm that returns a single clustering solution that is simultaneously O(1)-approximate for all 𝓁_p-norms of the disagreement vector; in other words, a combinatorial O(1)-approximation of the all-norms objective for correlation clustering. This is the first proof that minimal sacrifice is needed in order to optimize different norms of the disagreement vector. In addition, our algorithm is the first combinatorial approximation algorithm for the 𝓁₂-norm objective, and more generally the first combinatorial algorithm for the 𝓁_p-norm objective when 1 < p < ∞. It is also faster than all previous algorithms that minimize the 𝓁_p-norm of the disagreement vector, with run-time O(n^ω), where O(n^ω) is the time for matrix multiplication on n × n matrices. When the maximum positive degree in the graph is at most Δ, this can be improved to a run-time of O(nΔ² log n).

Scheduling Under Non-Uniform Job and Machine Delays

Authors: Rajmohan Rajaraman, David Stalfa, and Sheng Yang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 261, 50th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2023)

Abstract
We study the problem of scheduling precedence-constrained jobs on heterogenous machines in the presence of non-uniform job and machine communication delays. We are given a set of n unit size precedence-ordered jobs, and a set of m related machines each with size m_i (machine i can execute at most m_i jobs at any time). Each machine i has an associated in-delay ρ^{in}_i and out-delay ρ^{out}_i. Each job v also has an associated in-delay ρ^{in}_v and out-delay ρ^{out}_v. In a schedule, job v may be executed on machine i at time t if each predecessor u of v is completed on i before time t or on any machine j before time t - (ρ^{in}_i + ρ^{out}_j + ρ^{out}_u + ρ^{in}_v). The objective is to construct a schedule that minimizes makespan, which is the maximum completion time over all jobs. We consider schedules which allow duplication of jobs as well as schedules which do not. When duplication is allowed, we provide an asymptotic polylog(n)-approximation algorithm. This approximation is further improved in the setting with uniform machine speeds and sizes. Our best approximation for non-uniform delays is provided for the setting with uniform speeds, uniform sizes, and no job delays. For schedules with no duplication, we obtain an asymptotic polylog(n)-approximation for the above model, and a true polylog(n)-approximation for symmetric machine and job delays. These results represent the first polylogarithmic approximation algorithms for scheduling with non-uniform communication delays. Finally, we consider a more general model, where the delay can be an arbitrary function of the job and the machine executing it: job v can be executed on machine i at time t if all of v’s predecessors are executed on i by time t-1 or on any machine by time t - ρ_{v,i}. We present an approximation-preserving reduction from the Unique Machines Precedence-constrained Scheduling (umps) problem, first defined in [Sami Davies et al., 2022], to this job-machine delay model. The reduction entails logarithmic hardness for this delay setting, as well as polynomial hardness if the conjectured hardness of umps holds. This set of results is among the first steps toward cataloging the rich landscape of problems in non-uniform delay scheduling.

Online Paging with Heterogeneous Cache Slots

Authors: Marek Chrobak, Samuel Haney, Mehraneh Liaee, Debmalya Panigrahi, Rajmohan Rajaraman, Ravi Sundaram, and Neal E. Young

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 254, 40th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2023)

Abstract
It is natural to generalize the online k-Server problem by allowing each request to specify not only a point p, but also a subset S of servers that may serve it. To initiate a systematic study of this generalization, we focus on uniform and star metrics. For uniform metrics, the problem is equivalent to a generalization of Paging in which each request specifies not only a page p, but also a subset S of cache slots, and is satisfied by having a copy of p in some slot in S. We call this problem Slot-Heterogenous Paging. In realistic settings only certain subsets of cache slots or servers would appear in requests. Therefore we parameterize the problem by specifying a family 𝒮 ⊆ 2^[k] of requestable slot sets, and we establish bounds on the competitive ratio as a function of the cache size k and family 𝒮. If all request sets are allowed (𝒮 = 2^[k]), the optimal deterministic and randomized competitive ratios are exponentially worse than for standard Paging (𝒮 = {[k]}). As a function of |𝒮| and k, the optimal deterministic ratio is polynomial: at most O(k²|𝒮|) and at least Ω(√{|𝒮|}). For any laminar family {𝒮} of height h, the optimal ratios are O(hk) (deterministic) and O(h²log k) (randomized). The special case that we call All-or-One Paging extends standard Paging by allowing each request to specify a specific slot to put the requested page in. For All-or-One Paging the optimal competitive ratios are Θ(k) (deterministic) and Θ(log k) (randomized), while the offline problem is NP-hard. We extend the deterministic upper bound to the weighted variant of All-or-One Paging (a generalization of standard Weighted Paging), showing that it is also Θ(k). Some results for the laminar case are shown via a reduction to the generalization of Paging in which each request specifies a set P of pages, and is satisfied by fetching any page from P into the cache. The optimal ratios for the latter problem (with laminar family of height h) are at most hk (deterministic) and hH_k (randomized).

Improved Bounds for Online Balanced Graph Re-Partitioning

Authors: Rajmohan Rajaraman and Omer Wasim

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 244, 30th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2022)

Abstract
We study the online balanced graph re-partitioning problem (OBGR) which was introduced by Avin, Bienkowski, Loukas, Pacut, and Schmid [Avin et al., 2020] and has recently received significant attention [Pacut et al., 2021; Henzinger et al., 2021; Henzinger et al., 2019; Tobias Forner et al., 2021; Bienkowski et al., 2021] owing to potential applications in large-scale, data-intensive distributed computing. In OBGR, we have a set of 𝓁 clusters, each with k vertices (representing processes or virtual machines), and an online sequence of communication requests, each represented by a pair of vertices. Any request (u,v) incurs unit communication cost if u and v are located in different clusters (and zero otherwise). Any vertex can be migrated from one cluster to another at a migration cost of α ≥ 1. We consider the objective of minimizing the total communication and migration cost in the competitive analysis framework. The only known algorithms (which run in exponential time) include an O(k²𝓁²) competitive [Avin et al., 2020] and an O(k𝓁 2^O(k)) competitive algorithm [Bienkowski et al., 2021]. A lower bound of Ω(k𝓁) is known [Pacut et al., 2021]. In an effort to bridge the gap, recent results have considered beyond worst case analyses including resource augmentation (with augmented cluster capacity [Avin et al., 2020; Henzinger et al., 2019; Henzinger et al., 2021]) and restricted request sequences (the learning model [Henzinger et al., 2019; Henzinger et al., 2021; Pacut et al., 2021]). In this paper, we give deterministic, polynomial-time algorithms for OBGR, which mildly exploit resource augmentation (i.e. augmented cluster capacity of (1+ε) k for arbitrary ε > 0). We improve beyond O(k²𝓁²)-competitiveness (for general 𝓁, k) by first giving a simple algorithm with competitive ratio O(k𝓁²log k). Our main result is an algorithm with a significantly improved competitive ratio of O(k𝓁 log k). At a high level, we achieve this by employing i) an ILP framework to guide the allocation of large components, ii) a simple "any fit" style assignment of small components and iii) a charging argument which allows us to bound the cost of migrations. Like previous work on OBGR, our algorithm and analysis are phase-based, where each phase solves an independent instance of the learning model. Finally, we give an Ω(α k𝓁 log k) lower bound on the total cost incurred by any algorithm for OBGR under the learning model, which quantifies the limitation of a phase-based approach.

Retracting Graphs to Cycles

Authors: Samuel Haney, Mehraneh Liaee, Bruce M. Maggs, Debmalya Panigrahi, Rajmohan Rajaraman, and Ravi Sundaram

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 132, 46th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2019)

Abstract
We initiate the algorithmic study of retracting a graph into a cycle in the graph, which seeks a mapping of the graph vertices to the cycle vertices so as to minimize the maximum stretch of any edge, subject to the constraint that the restriction of the mapping to the cycle is the identity map. This problem has its roots in the rich theory of retraction of topological spaces, and has strong ties to well-studied metric embedding problems such as minimum bandwidth and 0-extension. Our first result is an O(min{k, sqrt{n}})-approximation for retracting any graph on n nodes to a cycle with k nodes. We also show a surprising connection to Sperner’s Lemma that rules out the possibility of improving this result using certain natural convex relaxations of the problem. Nevertheless, if the problem is restricted to planar graphs, we show that we can overcome these integrality gaps by giving an optimal combinatorial algorithm, which is the technical centerpiece of the paper. Building on our planar graph algorithm, we also obtain a constant-factor approximation algorithm for retraction of points in the Euclidean plane to a uniform cycle.

Improved Algorithms for Scheduling Unsplittable Flows on Paths

Authors: Hamidreza Jahanjou, Erez Kantor, and Rajmohan Rajaraman

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 92, 28th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2017)

Abstract
In this paper, we investigate offline and online algorithms for Round-UFPP, the problem of minimizing the number of rounds required to schedule a set of unsplittable flows of non-uniform sizes on a given path with non-uniform edge capacities. Round-UFPP is NP-hard and constant-factor approximation algorithms are known under the no bottleneck assumption (NBA), which stipulates that maximum size of a flow is at most the minimum edge capacity. We study Round-UFPP without the NBA, and present improved online and offline algorithms. We first study offline Round-UFPP for a restricted class of instances called alpha-small, where the size of each flow is at most alpha times the capacity of its bottleneck edge, and present an O(log(1/(1 - alpha)))-approximation algorithm. Our main result is an online O(log log cmax)-competitive algorithm for Round-UFPP for general instances, where cmax is the largest edge capacities, improving upon the previous best bound of O(log cmax) due to [16]. Our result leads to an offline O(min(log n, log m, log log cmax))- approximation algorithm and an online O(min(log m, log log cmax))-competitive algorithm for Round-UFPP, where n is the number of flows and m is the number of edges.

Symmetric Interdiction for Matching Problems

Authors: Samuel Haney, Bruce Maggs, Biswaroop Maiti, Debmalya Panigrahi, Rajmohan Rajaraman, and Ravi Sundaram

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 81, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2017)

Abstract
Motivated by denial-of-service network attacks, we introduce the symmetric interdiction model, where both the interdictor and the optimizer are subject to the same constraints of the underlying optimization problem. We give a general framework that relates optimization to symmetric interdiction for a broad class of optimization problems. We then study the symmetric matching interdiction problem - with applications in traffic engineering - in more detail. This problem can be simply stated as follows: find a matching whose removal minimizes the size of the maximum matching in the remaining graph. We show that this problem is APX-hard, and obtain a 3/2-approximation algorithm that improves on the approximation guarantee provided by the general framework.
