In this paper, we consider the time complexity of this problem when the namespace is linear in the number of participants, a variant known as loose renaming. We give a non-adaptive algorithm with O(log log n) (individual) step complexity, where n is a known upper bound on contention, and an adaptive algorithm with step complexity O((log log k)2), where k is the actual contention in the execution. We also present a variant of the adaptive algorithm which requires O(k log log k) total process steps. All upper bounds hold with high probability against a strong adaptive adversary. We complement the algorithms with an ω(log log n) expected time lower bound on the complexity of randomized renaming using test-and-set operations and linear space. The result is based on a new coupling technique, and is the first to apply to non-adaptive randomized renaming. Since our algorithms use O(n) test-and-set objects, our results provide matching bounds on the cost of loose renaming in this setting."}],"citation":{"apa":"Alistarh, D.-A., Aspnes, J., Giakkoupis, G., & Woelfel, P.
