Distributed Algorithms Models

Interprocess Communication method: accessing shared memory, point-to-point or broadcast messages, or remote procedure calls.

• Timing model: synchronous or asynchronous models.

• Failure models : reliable or faulty behavior; Byzantine failures (failed processor can behave arbitrarily).

Page 3: UBI529

We assume

A distributed network—Modeled as a graph. Nodes are processors and edges are communication links.

• Nodes can communicate directly (only) with their neighbors through the edges.

• Nodes have unique processor identities.

• Synchronous model: Time is measured in rounds (time steps).

• One message (typically of size O(log n)) can be sent through an edge in a time step. A node can send messages simultaneously through all its edges at once in a round.

• No failure of nodes or edges. No malicious nodes.

Preliminaries

Vertex Coloring Problem: Given undirected Graph G = (V,E). Assign a color cu to each vertex u Є V such that if e = (v,w) Є E, then cu ≠ cw Aim is to use the minimum number of colors.

Definition 2.1.1 : Given an undirected Graph, chromatic number Χ(G) is the minimum number of colors to color it. A vertex k-coloring uses exactly k colors. If X(G) = k, G is k-colorable but not (k-1) colorable.Calculating X(G) is NP-hard. 3-coloring decision is NP-complete.

Applications :Assignment of radio frequencies : Colors represent frequencies, transmitters are the vertices. If two stations are neighbors when they interfere.University course scheduling : Vertices are courses, students edgesFast register allocation for computer programming : Vertices are variables, they are neigbors if they can be active at the same time.

Sequential Algorithm for Vertex Coloring

Algorithm 2.1.1 : Sequential Vertex ColoringInput : G with v1,v2, ..., vn

Output : Vertex Coloring f : VG -> {1,2,3,..}

1. For i =1 to n do 2. f(vi) := smallest color number that does not conflict by

any of the other colored neighbors of vi

3. Return Vertex Coloring f

Vertex Coloring Algorithms

Definition 2.1.2 : The number of neighbors of a vertex v is called the degree of v δ(v). The maximum degree vertex in a Graph G is called the the Graph degree Δ(G) = Δ.

Theorem 2.1.1 : The algorithm is correct and terminates in O(n) steps. The algorithm uses Δ +1 colors.Proof: Correctness and termination are straight-forward. Since each node has at most Δ neighbors, there is always at least one color free in the range {1, …, Δ+1}.

Remarks:• For many graphs coloring can be done with much less than Δ +1 colors.• This algorithm is not distributed; only one processor is active at a time. But: Use idea of Algorithm 1.4 to define “local” coloring subroutine 1.7

Heuristic Vertex Coloring Algorithm : Largest Degree First

Idea : (Two observations) A vertex of a large degree is more difficult to color than a smaller degree vertex. Also, a vertex with more colored neighbors will be more difficult to color later

Algorithm 2.1.1 : Largest Degree First Algorithm

Input : G with v1,v2, ..., vn

Output : Vertex Coloring f : VG -> {1,2,3,..}

1. While there are uncolored vertices of G2. Among the uncolored max. degree vertices

Choose vertex v with the max. Colored degree 3. Assign smallest possible k to v : f(v) := k4. Return Vertex Coloring fThe coloring in the diagram is v3,v1,v2,v4,v8,v6,v7,v5

Colored degree : # of different colors used to color neighbors of v

Coloring Trees : A Distributed Algorithm

Lemma 2.1.1: X(Tree) <= 2.

Proof: If the distance of a node to the root is odd (even), color it 1 (0). An odd node has only even neighbors and vice versa.If we assume that each node knows its parent (root has no parent) and children in a tree, this constructive proof gives a very simple algorithm.

Algorithm 2.1.3 [Slow tree coloring]:

1. Root sends color 0 to children. (Root is colored 0)2. When receiving a message x from parent, a node u picks color cu = 1-x, and sends cu to its children

Page 10: UBI529

Distributed Tree Coloring

Remarks:

• With the proof of Lemma 2.1.1, the algorithm 2.13 is correct.• The time complexity of the algorithm is the height of the tree.• When the root is chosen randomly, this can be up to the diameter of the tree.

2.2 Distributed Tree based Communication Algorithms

• Broadcast

• Convergecast

• BFS Tree Construction

Page 12: UBI529

12

Broadcast

Broadcasting means sending a message from a source node to all othernodes of the network.

Two basic broadcasting approaches are flooding andspanning tree-based broadcast.

Flooding:

A source node s wants to send a message to allnodes in the network. s simply forwards the message over all its edges.

Any vertex v != s, upon receiving the message forthe first time (over an edge e) forwards it on everyother edge.

Upon receiving the message again it does nothing.

Page 13: UBI529

13

Broadcast

Definition 2.2.1 [Broadcast]: A broadcast operation is initiated by a single processor, the source. The source wants to send a message to all other nodes in the system.

Definition 2.2.2 [Distance, Radius, Diameter]:

• The distance between two nodes u, v in an undirected graph is the number of hops of a minimum path between u and v.

• The radius of a node u in a graph is the maximum distance between u and any other node. The radius of a graph is the minimum radius of any node in the graph.

• The diameter of a graph is the maximum distance between two arbitrary nodes.

Page 14: UBI529

14

Broadcast

Theorem 2.2.1 [Lower Bound]: The message complexity of a broadcast is at least n-1. The radius of the graph is a lower bound for the time complexity.Proof: Every node must receive the message.

Remarks:• You can use a pre-computed spanning tree to do the broadcast with tight message complexity.• If the spanning tree is a breadth-first spanning tree (for a given source), then also the time complexity is tight.Definition 2.2.3 : A graph (system/network) is clean if the nodes do not know the topology of the graph.Theorem 2.2.2 [Clean Lower Bound]: For a clean network, the number of edges is a lower bound for the broadcast message complexity.Proof: If you do not try every edge, you might miss a whole part of the graph behind it.

Page 15: UBI529

15

Flooding

Algorithm 2.2.1 [Flooding]: The source sends the message to all neighbors. Each node receiving the message the first time forwards to all (other) neighbors.

Remarks:

• If node v receives the message first from node u, then node v calls node u “parent”. This parent relation defines a spanning tree T. If the flooding algorithm is executed in a synchronous system, then T is a breadth-first spanning tree (with respect to the root).

• More interestingly, also in asynchronous systems the flooding algorithm terminates after r time units, where r is the radius of the source. (But note that the constructed spanning tree needs not be breadth-first.)

Page 16: UBI529

16

Flooding Analysis

Theorem : The message complexity of flooding is (|E|) and the time complexity is (D), where D is the diameter of G.

Proof. The message complexity follows from the fact that each edge delivers the message at least once and at most twice (one in each direction). To show the time complexity, we use induction on t to show that after t time units, the message has already reached everyvertex at a distance of t or less from the source

Broadcast Over a Rooted Spanning Tree

Suppose processors already have information about a rooted spanning tree of the communication topology

tree: connected graph with no cycles spanning tree: contains all processors rooted: there is a unique root node

Implemented via parent and children local variables at each processor

indicate which incident channels lead to parent and children in the rooted spanning tree

Page 18: UBI529

18

Broadcast Over a Rooted Spanning Tree: A Simple Algorithm

1. root initially sends msg to its children2. when a node receives msg from its parent

sends msg to its children terminates (sets a local boolean to true)

Synchronous model:

time is depth of the spanning tree, which is at most n - 1 number of messages is n - 1, since one message is sent over

each spanning tree edge

Asynchronous model:

same time and messages

Page 19: UBI529

19

Tree Broadcast

Assume that a spanning tree has been constructed.

Theorem . For every n-vertex graph G with a spanning tree T rooted at r0, the message complexity of broadcast is n−1 and time complexity is depth(T).

A broadcast algorithm can be used to construct a spanning tree in G.

The message complexity of broadcast is asymptotically equivalent to the message complexity of spanning tree construction.

Using a breadth-first spanning tree, we get theoptimal message and time complexities for broadcast.

Page 20: UBI529

20

Convergecast

Again, suppose a rooted spanning tree has already been computed by the processors

parent and children variables at each processor

Do the opposite of broadcast:

leaves send messages to their parents

non-leaves wait to get message from each child, then send combined info to parent

Greedy Algorithms

Kruskal's algorithm. Start with T = . Consider edges in ascending order of cost. Insert edge e in T unless doing so would create a cycle.

Reverse-Delete algorithm. Start with T = E. Consider edges in descending order of cost. Delete edge e from T unless doing so would disconnect T.

Prim's algorithm. Start with some root node s and greedily grow a tree T from s outward. At each step, add the cheapest edge e to T that has exactly one endpoint in T.

Remark. All three algorithms produce an MST.

Greedy Algorithms

Simplifying assumption. All edge costs ce are distinct.

Cut property. Let S be any subset of nodes, and let e be the min cost edge with exactly one endpoint in S. Then the MST contains e.

Greedy Algorithms

Simplifying assumption. All edge costs ce are distinct.

Cut property. Let S be any subset of nodes, and let e be the min cost edge with exactly one endpoint in S. Then the MST T* contains e.

Pf. (exchange argument) Suppose e does not belong to T*, and let's see what happens. Adding e to T* creates a cycle C in T*. Edge e is both in the cycle C and in the cutset D corresponding

to S there exists another edge, say f, that is in both C and D.

T' = T* { e } - { f } is also a spanning tree. Since ce < cf, cost(T') < cost(T*). This is a contradiction. ▪

Prim's Algorithm: Proof of Correctness

Prim's algorithm. [Jarník 1930, Dijkstra 1957, Prim 1959] Initialize S = any node. Apply cut property to S. Add min cost edge in cutset corresponding to S to T, and add

one new explored node u to S.

Implementation: Prim's Algorithm

Prim(G, c) { foreach (v V) a[v] Initialize an empty priority queue Q foreach (v V) insert v onto Q Initialize set of explored nodes S

while (Q is not empty) { u delete min element from Q S S { u }

foreach (edge e = (u, v) incident to u) if ((v S) and (ce < a[v]))

decrease priority a[v] to ce

}

Implementation. Use a priority queue ala Dijkstra. Maintain set of explored nodes S. For each unexplored node v, maintain attachment cost a[v] =

cost of cheapest edge v to a node in S. O(n2) with an array; O(m log n) with a binary heap.

Kruskal's Algorithm: Proof of Correctness

Kruskal's algorithm. [Kruskal, 1956] Consider edges in ascending order of weight. Case 1: If adding e to T creates a cycle, discard e according

to cycle property. Case 2: Otherwise, insert e = (u, v) into T according to cut

Graph traversal

Many applications of exploring an unknown graph by a visitor

(a token or mobile agent or a robot). The goal of traversal

is to visit every node at least once, and return to the starting point.

- How efficiently can this be done?

- What is the guarantee that all nodes will be visited?

- What is the guarantee that the algorithm will terminate?

Consider web-crawlers, exploration of social networks,graph layouts for visualization or drawing etc.

Page 41: UBI529

Graph traversal and Spanning Tree Formation

Rule 1. Send the token towards each neighbor exactly once.

Rule 2. If rule 1 is not applicable, then send the token to the parent.

Distributed MST

Def MST Fragment : In a weighted graph G = (V,E,w), a tree T in G is called an MST fragment of G, i there exists an MST of G such that T is a subgraph of that MST.

Def MWOE : An edge e is an outgoing edge of a MST fragment T, iff exactly one of its endpoints belongs to T. The minimum weight outgoingedge is denoted MWOE(T).Lemma : Consider a MST fragment T of a graph G = (V, E, w). Lete = MWOE(T). Then T U e is a MST fragment as well.

Proof : Let TM be an MST containing T. If TM contains T we are done.Otherwise, let e’ be an edge that connects T to the rest of TM.Clearly, e’ is an outgoing edge of T and w(e’)>=w(e). Adding e to TM, creates a graph C with a cycle through e and e’. Discarding e’ from C yields a new T’ M with w(T’ M) >= w(TM).

Page 43: UBI529

Minimum Spanning Tree

Given a weighted graph G = (V, E), generate a spanning tree T = (V, E’)

such that the sum of the weights of all the edges is minimum.

Nodes in a fragment acquire the same name before augmentation.

Page 49: UBI529

49

Two main steps

Each fragment has a level. Initially each node is a fragment at level 0.

(MERGE) Two fragments at the same level L combine to form a fragment

of level L+1

(ABSORB) A fragment at level L is absorbed by another fragment at level

L’ (L < L’)

Page 50: UBI529

50

Least weight outgoing edge

To test if an edge is outgoing, each node sends a test message through a candidate edge. The receiving node may send accept or reject.

Root broadcasts initiate in its own fragment, collects the report from other nodes about eligible edges using a convergecast, and determines the least weight outgoing edge.

message is sent, changes its status to

branch, and becomes a tree edge.

Message complexity

At least two messages (test + reject) must pass through eachrejected edge. The upper bound is 2|E| messages.

At each of the log N levels, a node can receive at most (1) oneinitiate message and (2) one accept message (3) one joinmessage (4) one test message not leading to a rejection, and(5) one changeroot message.

So, the total number of messages has an upper bound of2|E| + 5N logN

Gallager, Humblet, & Spira ’83: O(n log n) running time message: O(|E| + n log n) (optimal)

Chin & Ting ’85: O(n log log n) timeGafni ’85: O(n log*n) Awerbuch ’87: O(n), existentially optimalGaray, Kutten, & Peleg ’98: O(D + n0.61), Diameter DKutten & Peleg ’98:

Elkin ’04: , μ is called MST radius

– Cannot detect termination unless μ is given as input.

Peleg & Rabinovich (’99) showed a lower bound of for running time.
