Deterministic Leader Election in $O(D + log n)$ Time with Messages of Size $O(1)$

AbstractThis paper presents a distributed algorithm, called STT, for electing deterministically a leader in an arbitrary network, assuming processors have unique identifiers of size $O(log n)$, where $n$ is the number of processors. It elects a leader in $O(D +log n)$ rounds, where $D$ is the diameter of the network, with messages of size $O(1)$. Thus it has a bit complexity of $O(D +log n)$. This substantially improves upon the best known algorithm whose bit complexity is $O(Dlog n)$. In fact, using the lower bound by Kutten et al. [26] and a result of Dinitz and Solomon [17], we show that the bit complexity of STT is optimal (up to a constant factor), which is a step forward in understanding the interplay between time and message optimality for the election problem. Our algorithm requires no knowledge on the graph such as $n$ or $D$.
