Brief announcement: locality-based aggregate computation in wireless sensor networks
We present DRR-gossip, an energy-efficient and robust aggregate computation algorithm in wireless sensor networks. We prove that the DRR-gossip algorithm requires O(n) messages a...

The weakest failure detector for solving k-set agreement
A failure detector is a distributed oracle that provides processes in a distributed system with hints about failures. The notion of a weakest failure detector captures the exact a...

Fast scalable deterministic consensus for crash failures
We study communication complexity of consensus in synchronous message-passing systems with processes prone to crashes. The goal in the consensus problem is to have all the nonfaul...

Memory models: a case for rethinking parallel languages and hardware
The era of parallel computing for the masses is here, but writing correct parallel programs remains far more difficult than writing sequential programs. Aside from a few domains,...
