  text: 'The sinkless orientation problem plays a key role in understanding the foundations
    of distributed computing. The problem can be used to separate two fundamental
    models of distributed graph algorithms, LOCAL and SLOCAL: the locality of sinkless
    orientation is Ω(log n) in the deterministic LOCAL model and O(log log n) in the
    deterministic SLOCAL model. Both of these results are known by prior work, but
    here we give new simple, self-contained proofs for them.'

  text: "Subgraph detection has recently been one of the most studied problems in
    the CONGEST model of distributed computing. In this work, we study the distributed
    complexity of problems closely related to subgraph detection, mainly focusing
    on induced subgraph detection. The main line of this work presents lower bounds
    and parameterized algorithms w.r.t structural parameters of the input graph:\r\n-
    On general graphs, we give unconditional lower bounds for induced detection of
    cycles and patterns of treewidth 2 in CONGEST. Moreover, by adapting reductions
    from centralized parameterized complexity, we prove lower bounds in CONGEST for
    detecting patterns with a 4-clique, and for induced path detection conditional
    on the hardness of triangle detection in the congested clique.\r\n- On graphs
    of bounded degeneracy, we show that induced paths can be detected fast in CONGEST
    using techniques from parameterized algorithms, while detecting cycles and patterns
    of treewidth 2 is hard.\r\n- On graphs of bounded vertex cover number, we show
    that induced subgraph detection is easy in CONGEST for any pattern graph. More
    specifically, we adapt a centralized parameterized algorithm for a more general
    maximum common induced subgraph detection problem to the distributed setting.
    In addition to these induced subgraph detection results, we study various related
    problems in the CONGEST and congested clique models, including for multicolored
    versions of subgraph-detection-like problems."

  text: "We consider a standard distributed optimisation setting where N machines,
    each holding a d-dimensional function\r\nfi, aim to jointly minimise the sum of
    the functions ∑Ni=1fi(x). This problem arises naturally in large-scale distributed
    optimisation, where a standard solution is to apply variants of (stochastic) gradient
    descent. We focus on the communication complexity of this problem: our main result
    provides the first fully unconditional bounds on total number of bits which need
    to be sent and received by the N machines to solve this problem under point-to-point
    communication, within a given error-tolerance. Specifically, we show that Ω(Ndlogd/Nε)
    total bits need to be communicated between the machines to find an additive ϵ-approximation
    to the minimum of ∑Ni=1fi(x). The result holds for both deterministic and randomised
    algorithms, and, importantly, requires no assumptions on the algorithm structure.
    The lower bound is tight under certain restrictions on parameter values, and is
    matched within constant factors for quadratic objectives by a new variant of quantised
    gradient descent, which we describe and analyse. Our results bring over tools
    from communication complexity to distributed optimisation, which has potential
    for further applications."

  us improve the positioning of our results, as well as for pointing out the subsampling
  approach for complementing the randomised lower bound. We also thank Foivos Alimisis

  text: "Consider a distributed task where the communication network is fixed but
    the local inputs given to the nodes of the distributed system may change over
    time. In this work, we explore the following question: if some of the local inputs
    change, can an existing solution be updated efficiently, in a dynamic and distributed
    manner?\r\nTo address this question, we define the batch dynamic CONGEST model
    in which we are given a bandwidth-limited communication network and a dynamic
    edge labelling defines the problem input. The task is to maintain a solution to
    a graph problem on the labelled graph under batch changes. We investigate, when
    a batch of alpha edge label changes arrive, - how much time as a function of alpha
    we need to update an existing solution, and - how much information the nodes have
    to keep in local memory between batches in order to update the solution quickly.\r\nOur
    work lays the foundations for the theory of input-dynamic distributed network
    algorithms. We give a general picture of the complexity landscape in this model,
    design both universal algorithms and algorithms for concrete problems, and present
    a general framework for lower bounds. The diverse time complexity of our model
    spans from constant time, through time polynomial in alpha, and to alpha time,
    which we show to be enough for any task."

  text: 'Consider a distributed task where the communication network is fixed but
    the local inputs given to the nodes of the distributed system may change over
    time. In this work, we explore the following question: if some of the local inputs
    change, can an existing solution be updated efficiently, in a dynamic and distributed
    manner? To address this question, we define the batch dynamic \congest model in
    which we are given a bandwidth-limited communication network and a dynamic edge
    labelling defines the problem input. The task is to maintain a solution to a graph
    problem on the labeled graph under batch changes. We investigate, when a batch
    of α edge label changes arrive, \beginitemize \item how much time as a function
    of α we need to update an existing solution, and \item how much information the
    nodes have to keep in local memory between batches in order to update the solution
    quickly. \enditemize Our work lays the foundations for the theory of input-dynamic
    distributed network algorithms. We give a general picture of the complexity landscape
    in this model, design both universal algorithms and algorithms for concrete problems,
    and present a general framework for lower bounds. In particular, we derive non-trivial
    upper bounds for two selected, contrasting problems: maintaining a minimum spanning
    tree and detecting cliques.'

  text: We show that any algorithm that solves the sinkless orientation problem in
    the supported LOCAL model requires Ω(log n) rounds, and this is tight. The supported
    LOCAL is at least as strong as the usual LOCAL model, and as a corollary this
    also gives a new, short and elementary proof that shows that the round complexity
    of the sinkless orientation problem in the deterministic LOCAL model is Ω(log
    n).

  text: "We design fast deterministic algorithms for distance computation in the Congested
    Clique model. Our key contributions include:\r\n    A (2+ϵ)-approximation for
    all-pairs shortest paths in O(log2n/ϵ) rounds on unweighted undirected graphs.
    With a small additional additive factor, this also applies for weighted graphs.
    This is the first sub-polynomial constant-factor approximation for APSP in this
    model.\r\n    A (1+ϵ)-approximation for multi-source shortest paths from O(n−−√)
    sources in O(log2n/ϵ) rounds on weighted undirected graphs. This is the first
    sub-polynomial algorithm obtaining this approximation for a set of sources of
    polynomial size.\r\n\r\nOur main techniques are new distance tools that are obtained
    via improved algorithms for sparse matrix multiplication, which we leverage to
    construct efficient hopsets and shortest paths. Furthermore, our techniques extend
    to additional distance problems for which we improve upon the state-of-the-art,
    including diameter approximation, and an exact single-source shortest paths algorithm
    for weighted undirected graphs in O~(n1/6) rounds. "

  text: The ability to leverage large-scale hardware parallelism has been one of the
    key enablers of the accelerated recent progress in machine learning. Consequently,
    there has been considerable effort invested into developing efficient parallel
    variants of classic machine learning algorithms. However, despite the wealth of
    knowledge on parallelization, some classic machine learning algorithms often prove
    hard to parallelize efficiently while maintaining convergence. In this paper,
    we focus on efficient parallel algorithms for the key machine learning task of
    inference on graphical models, in particular on the fundamental belief propagation
    algorithm. We address the challenge of efficiently parallelizing this classic
    paradigm by showing how to leverage scalable relaxed schedulers in this context.
    We present an extensive empirical study, showing that our approach outperforms
    previous parallel belief propagation implementations both in terms of scalability
    and in terms of wall-clock convergence time, on a range of practical applications.

  text: "We design fast deterministic algorithms for distance computation in the CONGESTED
    CLIQUE model. Our key contributions include:\r\n\r\n - A (2+ε)-approximation for
    all-pairs shortest paths problem in O(log²n / ε) rounds on unweighted undirected
    graphs. With a small additional additive factor, this also applies for weighted
    graphs. This is the first sub-polynomial constant-factor approximation for APSP
    in this model.\r\n - A (1+ε)-approximation for multi-source shortest paths problem
    from O(√n) sources in O(log² n / ε) rounds on weighted undirected graphs. This
    is the first sub-polynomial algorithm obtaining this approximation for a set of
    sources of polynomial size.\r\n\r\nOur main techniques are new distance tools
    that are obtained via improved algorithms for sparse matrix multiplication, which
    we leverage to construct efficient hopsets and shortest paths. Furthermore, our
    techniques extend to additional distance problems for which we improve upon the
    state-of-the-art, including diameter approximation, and an exact single-source
    shortest paths algorithm for weighted undirected graphs in Õ(n^{1/6}) rounds."

  text: "This paper investigates the power of preprocessing in the CONGEST model.
    Schmid and Suomela (ACM HotSDN 2013) introduced the SUPPORTED CONGEST model to
    study the application of distributed algorithms in Software-Defined Networks (SDNs).
    In this paper, we show that a large class of lower bounds in the CONGEST model
    still hold in the SUPPORTED model, highlighting the robustness of these bounds.
    This also raises the question how much does\r\npreprocessing help in the CONGEST
    model."

  text: "In this work, we use algebraic methods for studying distance computation
    and subgraph detection tasks in the congested clique model. Specifically, we adapt
    parallel matrix multiplication implementations to the congested clique, obtaining
    an O(n1−2/ω) round matrix multiplication algorithm, where ω<2.3728639 is the exponent
    of matrix multiplication. In conjunction with known techniques from centralised
    algorithmics, this gives significant improvements over previous best upper bounds
    in the congested clique model. The highlight results include:\r\n\r\n1.    triangle
    and 4-cycle counting in O(n0.158) rounds, improving upon the O(n1/3) algorithm
    of Dolev et al. [DISC 2012],\r\n2. a (1+o(1))-approximation of all-pairs shortest
    paths in O(n0.158) rounds, improving upon the O~(n1/2)-round (2+o(1))-approximation
    algorithm given by Nanongkai [STOC 2014], and\r\n 3. computing the girth in O(n0.158)
    rounds, which is the first non-trivial solution in this model.\r\n   \r\nIn addition,
    we present a novel constant-round combinatorial algorithm for detecting 4-cycles."
