Stephan Holzer: A Local Broadcast Layer for the SINR Network Model Friday, April 3, 2015 - 1:00pm to 2:30pm We present the first algorithm to implement an abstract MAC (absMAC) layer in the Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise-Ratio (SINR) wireless network model. We first prove that efficient SINR implementations are not possible for the standard absMAC specification. |

MIra Radeva/Cameron Musco: Distributed House-Hunting in Ant Colonies Friday, March 20, 2015 - 1:00pm to 2:30pm We introduce the study of the ant colony house-hunting problem from a distributed computing perspective. When an ant colony's nest becomes unsuitable due to size constraints or damage, the colony must relocate to a new nest. |
