We want algorithms with low asymptotic competitive ratio while repacking items sparingly between updates. Formally, each item i has a movement cost c_i >= 0, and we want to use alpha * OPT bins and incur a movement cost gamma * c_i, either in the worst case, or in an amortized sense, for alpha, gamma as small as possible. We call gamma the recourse of the algorithm. This is motivated by cloud storage applications, where fully-dynamic bin packing models the problem of data backup to minimize the number of disks used, as well as communication incurred in moving file backups between disks. Since the set of files changes over time, we could recompute a solution periodically from scratch, but this would give a high number of disk rewrites, incurring a high energy cost and possible wear and tear of the disks. In this work, we present optimal tradeoffs between number of bins used and number of items repacked, as well as natural extensions of the latter measure.}}, author = {{Feldkord, Björn and Feldotto, Matthias and Gupta, Anupam and Guruganesh, Guru and Kumar, Amit and Riechers, Sören and Wajc, David}}, booktitle = {{45th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2018)}}, editor = {{Chatzigiannakis, Ioannis and Kaklamanis, Christos and Marx, Dániel and Sannella, Donald}}, isbn = {{978-3-95977-076-7}}, issn = {{1868-8969}}, location = {{Prag}}, pages = {{51:1--51:24}}, publisher = {{Schloss Dagstuhl--Leibniz-Zentrum fuer Informatik}}, title = {{{Fully-Dynamic Bin Packing with Little Repacking}}}, doi = {{10.4230/LIPIcs.ICALP.2018.51}}, volume = {{107}}, year = {{2018}}, } @inproceedings{2485, author = {{Feldkord, Björn and Meyer auf der Heide, Friedhelm}}, booktitle = {{Proceedings of the 30th ACM Symposium on Parallelism in Algorithms and Architectures (SPAA)}}, location = {{Wien}}, pages = {{373 -- 381 }}, publisher = {{ACM}}, title = {{{Online Facility Location with Mobile Facilities}}}, doi = {{10.1145/3210377.3210389}}, year = {{2018}}, } @article{2849, author = {{Abu-Khzam, Faisal N. and Markarian, Christine and Meyer auf der Heide, Friedhelm and Schubert, Michael}}, journal = {{Theory of Computing Systems}}, publisher = {{Springer}}, title = {{{Approximation and Heuristic Algorithms for Computing Backbones in Asymmetric Ad-hoc Networks}}}, doi = {{10.1007/s00224-017-9836-z}}, year = {{2018}}, } @inproceedings{2850, author = {{Hamann, Heiko and Markarian, Christine and Meyer auf der Heide, Friedhelm and Wahby, Mostafa}}, booktitle = {{Ninth International Conference on Fun with Algorithms (FUN)}}, title = {{{Pick, Pack, & Survive: Charging Robots in a Modern Warehouse based on Online Connected Dominating Sets}}}, doi = {{10.4230/LIPIcs.FUN.2018.22}}, year = {{2018}}, } @phdthesis{1138, author = {{Gmyr, Robert}}, publisher = {{Universität Paderborn}}, title = {{{Distributed Algorithms for Overlay Networks and Programmable Matter}}}, doi = {{10.17619/UNIPB/1-265}}, year = {{2018}}, } @inproceedings{1163, abstract = {{In this paper we present two major results: First, we introduce the first self-stabilizing version of a supervised overlay network (as introduced in~\cite{DBLP:conf/ispan/KothapalliS05}) by presenting a self-stabilizing supervised skip ring.

In this work, we present a self-stabilizing protocol for a distributed data structure called the hashed Patricia Trie (Kniesburges and Scheideler WALCOM'11) that enables efficient prefix search on a set of keys. The data structure has a wide area of applications including string matching problems while offering low overhead and efficient operations when embedded on top of a distributed hash table. Especially, longest prefix matching for $x$ can be done in $\mathcal{O}(\log |x|)$ hash table read accesses. We show how to maintain the structure in a self-stabilizing way.

In fact, it is known that any online routing protocol has a poor performance in the worst case, in a sense that there is a distribution of nodes resulting in bad routing paths for that protocol, even if the nodes know their geographic positions and the geographic position of the destination of a message is known. The reason for that is that radio holes in the ad hoc network may require messages to take long detours in order to get to a destination, which are hard to find in an online fashion. In this paper, we assume that the wireless ad hoc network can make limited use of long-range links provided by a global communication infrastructure like a cellular infrastructure or a satellite in order to compute an abstraction of the wireless ad hoc network that allows the messages to be sent along near-shortest paths in the ad hoc network. We present distributed algorithms that compute an abstraction of the ad hoc network in $\mathcal{O}\left(\log ^2 n\right)$ time using long-range links, which results in $c$-competitive routing paths between any two nodes of the ad hoc network for some constant $c$ if the convex hulls of the radio holes do not intersect. We also show that the storage needed for the abstraction just depends on the number and size of the radio holes in the wireless ad hoc network and is independent on the total number of nodes, and this information just has to be known to a few nodes for the routing to work. }}, author = {{Jung, Daniel and Kolb, Christina and Scheideler, Christian and Sundermeier, Jannik}}, booktitle = {{Proceedings of the 14th International Symposium on Algorithms and Experiments for Wireless Networks (ALGOSENSORS) }}, keywords = {{greedy routing, ad hoc networks, convex hulls, c-competitiveness}}, location = {{Helsinki}}, publisher = {{Springer}}, title = {{{Competitive Routing in Hybrid Communication Networks}}}, year = {{2018}}, } @inproceedings{4565, author = {{Jung, Daniel and Kolb, Christina and Scheideler, Christian and Sundermeier, Jannik}}, booktitle = {{Proceedings of the 30th on Symposium on Parallelism in Algorithms and Architectures (SPAA)}}, isbn = {{9781450357999}}, location = {{Wien}}, publisher = {{ACM Press}}, title = {{{Brief Announcement: Competitive Routing in Hybrid Communication Networks}}}, doi = {{10.1145/3210377.3210663}}, year = {{2018}}, } @inproceedings{7570, author = {{Meyer auf der Heide, Friedhelm and Schaefer, Johannes Sebastian}}, booktitle = {{Proceedings of the 30th on Symposium on Parallelism in Algorithms and Architectures - SPAA '18}}, isbn = {{9781450357999}}, location = {{Vienna}}, publisher = {{ACM Press}}, title = {{{Brief Announcement: Communication in Systems of Home Based Mobile Agents}}}, doi = {{10.1145/3210377.3210662}}, year = {{2018}}, } @inproceedings{4351, abstract = {{ We extend the concept of monotonic searchability~\cite{DBLP:conf/opodis/ScheidelerSS15}~\cite{DBLP:conf/wdag/ScheidelerSS16} for self-stabilizing systems from one to multiple dimensions. A system is self-stabilizing if it can recover to a legitimate state from any initial illegal state. These kind of systems are most often used in distributed applications. Monotonic searchability provides guarantees when searching for nodes while the recovery process is going on. More precisely, if a search request started at some node $u$ succeeds in reaching its destination $v$, then all future search requests from $u$ to $v$ succeed as well. Although there already exists a self-stabilizing protocol for a two-dimensional topology~\cite{DBLP:journals/tcs/JacobRSS12} and an universal approach for monotonic searchability~\cite{DBLP:conf/wdag/ScheidelerSS16}, it is not clear how both of these concepts fit together effectively. The latter concept even comes with some restrictive assumptions on messages, which is not the case for our protocol. We propose a simple novel protocol for a self-stabilizing two-dimensional quadtree that satisfies monotonic searchability. Our protocol can easily be extended to higher dimensions and offers routing in $\mathcal O(\log n)$ hops for any search request. }}, author = {{Feldmann, Michael and Kolb, Christina and Scheideler, Christian}}, booktitle = {{Proceedings of the 20th International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems (SSS)}}, pages = {{16--31 }}, publisher = {{Springer, Cham}}, title = {{{Self-stabilizing Overlays for high-dimensional Monotonic Searchability}}}, doi = {{10.1007/978-3-030-03232-6_2}}, volume = {{11201}}, year = {{2018}}, } @inproceedings{4375, abstract = {{We present a peer-to-peer network that supports the efficient processing of orthogonal range queries $R=\bigtimes_{i=1}^{d}[a_i,\,b_i]$ in a $d$-dimensional point space.\\ The network is the same for each dimension, namely a distance halving network like the one introduced by Naor and Wieder (ACM TALG'07).
