Motivated by applications in batch scheduling of jobs in manufacturing systems and distributed computing, we study two related problems. Given is a set of jobs {J1, . . . , Jn}, w...
We consider self-stabilizing and self-organizing distributed construction of a spanner that forms an expander. The following results are presented. • A randomized technique to r...
