Elections in Anonymous Networks
We address the problem of electing a leader in an anonymous, asynchronous network of arbitrary topology. Our algorithms are considerably simpler than known algorithms and have equal or improved communication complexity.
متن کاملEffective Elections for Anonymous Mobile Agents
We present distributed protocols for electing a leader among k mobile agents that are dispersed among the n nodes of a graph. While previous solutions for the agent election problem were restricted to specific topologies or under specific conditions, the protocols presented in this paper face the problem in the most general case, i.e. for an arbitrary topology where the nodes of the graph may n...
متن کاملComputation in anonymous networks
We identify and investigate a computational model arising in molecular computing, social computing and sensor network. The model is made of of multiple agents who are computationally limited and posses no global information. The agents may represent nodes in a social network, sensors, or molecules in a molecular computer. Assuming that each agent is in one of k states, we say that the system co...
متن کاملFinding routes in anonymous sensor networks
We consider networks of anonymous sensors and address the problem of constructing routes for the delivery of information from a group of sensors in response to a query by a sink. In order to circumvent the restrictions imposed by anonymity, we rely on using the power level perceived by the sensors in the query from the sink. We introduce a simple distributed algorithm to achieve the building of...
متن کاملAnonymous Processing of Query in Road Networks
The increasing availability of location-aware mobile devices has given rise to a flurry of location-based services (LBS). Due to the nature of spatial queries, an LBS needs the user position in order to process her requests. On the other hand, revealing exact user locations to a (potentially untrusted) LBS may pinpoint their identities and breach their privacy. To address this issue, spatial an...
