Self-stabilizing Balls & Bins in Batches
A fundamental problem in distributed computing is the distribution of requests to a set of uniformservers without a centralized controller. Classically, such problems are modelled as static balls intobins processes, where m balls (tasks) are to be distributed to n bins (servers). In a seminal work,Azar et al. [4] proposed the sequential strategy Greedy[d] for n = m. When thrown,...
متن کاملBalls into Bins Made Faster
Balls-into-bins games describe in an abstract setting several multiple-choice scenarios, and allow for a systematic and unified theoretical treatment. In the process that we consider, there are n bins, initially empty, and m = bcnc balls. Each ball chooses independently and uniformly at random k ≥ 3 bins. We are looking for an allocation such that each ball is placed into one of its chosen bins...
متن کاملBalanced Allocations: Balls-into-Bins Revisited and Chains-into-Bins
The study of balls-into-bins games or occupancy problems has a long history since these processes can be used to translate realistic problems into mathematical ones in a natural way. In general, the goal of a balls-into-bins game is to allocate a set of independent objects (tasks, jobs, balls) to a set of resources (servers, bins, urns) and, thereby, to minimize the maximum load. In this paper ...
متن کاملOn Weighted Balls-into-Bins Games
We consider the well-known problem of randomly allocating m balls into n bins. We investigate various properties of single-choice games as well as multiple-choice games in the context of weighted balls. We are particularly interested in questions that are concerned with the distribution of ball weights, and the order in which balls are allocated. Do any of these parameters influence the maximum...
متن کاملBalls into Bins via Local Search
We propose a natural process for allocating n balls into n bins that are organized as the vertices of an undirected graph G. Each ball first chooses a vertex u in G uniformly at random. Then the ball performs a local search in G starting from u until it reaches a vertex with local minimum load, where the ball is finally placed on. In our main result, we prove that this process yields a maximum ...
