Efficient hardware support for the Partitioned Global Address Space
We present a novel architecture of a communication engine for non-coherent distributed shared memory systems. The shared memory is composed by a set of nodes exporting their memory...

Beating the Random Ordering is Hard: Inapproximability of Maximum Acyclic Subgraph
We prove that approximating the Max Acyclic Subgraph problem within a factor better than 1/2 is Unique-Games hard. Specifically, for every constant ε > 0 the following holds:...

Gradient clock synchronization
We introduce the distributed gradient clock synchronization problem. As in traditional distributed clock synchronization, we consider a network of nodes equipped with hardware clo...
