Expected number of uniformly distributed balls in a most loaded bin using placement with simple linear functions

چکیده

We estimate the size of a most loaded bin in the setting when the balls are placed into the bins using a random linear function in a finite field. The balls are chosen from a transformed interval. We show that in this setting the expected load of the most loaded bins is constant. This is an interesting fact because using fully random hash functions with the same class of input sets leads to an expectation of Θ ́

The Power of Two Random Choices: A Survey of Techniques and Results

To motivate this survey, we begin with a simple problem that demonstrates a powerful fundamental idea. Suppose that n balls are thrown into n bins, with each ball choosing a bin independently and uniformly at random. Then the maximum load, or the largest number of balls in any bin, is approximately log n= log logn with high probability.1 Now suppose instead that the balls are placed sequentiall...

Fractional Matching Via Balls-and-Bins

In this paper we relate the problem of finding structures related to perfect matchings in bipartite graphs to a stochastic process similar to throwing balls into bins. Given a bipartite graph with n nodes on each side, we view each node on the left as having balls that it can throw into nodes on the right (bins) to which it is adjacent. If each node on the left throws exactly one ball and each ...

Advanced Algorithm Design: Load Balancing

During last lecture, we showed that using the simple randomized strategy when assigning n balls to n bins, max load = O log n log log n. We now consider a more intelligent strategy of assigning balls to bins and show that it results in a suprising improvement over the above result. 1.1 Power of two choices In our new strategy, we choose two bins uniformly at random and place the ball in the bin...

The Power of Two Choices in Randomized Load

Suppose that n balls are placed into n bins, each ball being placed into a bin chosen independently and uniformly at random. Then, with high probability, the maximum load in any bin is approximately log n log log n. Suppose instead that each ball is placed sequentially into the least full of d bins chosen independently and uniformly at random. It has recently been shown that the maximum load is...

Parallel randomized load balancing

It is well known that after placing n balls independently and uniformly at random into n bins, the fullest bin holds Θ(logn/ log logn) balls with high probability. More recently, Azar et al. analyzed the following process: randomly choose d bins for each ball, and then place the balls, one by one, into the least full bin from its d choices [2]. They show that after all n balls have been placed,...
