Abstract An algorithm for electing a leader in an asynchronous network with dynamically
changing communication topology is presented. The algorithm ensures that, no matter what
pattern of topology changes occur, if topology changes cease, then eventually every ...

Summary We consider agreement and leader election on asynchronous complete networks
when the processors are reliable, but some of the channels are subject to failure. Fischer,
Lynch, and Paterson have already shown that no deterministic algorithm can solve the ...

Abstract With the proliferation of portable computing platforms and small wireless devices,
the classical dilemma of leader election in mobile ad hoc networks has received attention
from the research community in recent years. The problem aims to elect a unique leader ...

... In many scenarios, it might be preferable to elect a leader that is “good”from some system ... We
first consider the problem of secure leader election in ad hoc networks and propose two ... These
algorithms assume a synchronous network and a lock-step execution of election rounds. ...
