Abstract
In this paper, we present a randomized constant factor approximation algorithm for the metric minimum facility location problem with uniform costs and demands in a distributed setting, in which every point can open a facility. In particular, our distributed algorithm uses three communication rounds with message sizes bounded to O(log n) bits where n is the number of points. We also extend our algorithm to constant powers of metric spaces, where we also obtain a randomized constant factor approximation algorithm.
