Abstract:Maximal Independent Set (MIS) is one of the central and most well-studied problems in distributed computing. Even after four decades of intensive research, the best-known (randomized) MIS algorithms take O(log n) worst-case rounds on general graphs (where n is the number of nodes), while the best-known lower bound is Ω log n log log n rounds. Breaking past the O(log n) worst-case bound or showing stronger lower bounds have been longstanding open problems.Motivated by resource-considerations in energy-constrain… Show more
“…The first lemma below captures the worst-case awake and round complexities of their first construction algorithm: Algorithm LDT-Construct-Awake. On the other hand, the second lemma captures the properties of a distributed LDT construction algorithm (Algorithm LDT-Construct-Round) with faster round complexity but larger awake complexity; Corollary 1 of [2] states such an algorithm exists, and we give a full construction procedure in the full version of this paper [17].…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
