Brief announcement: self-assembly as graph grammar as distributed system
In 2004, Klavins et al. introduced the use of graph grammars to describe--and to program--systems of self-assembly. It turns out that these graph grammars can be embedded in a gra...

A distributed polylogarithmic time algorithm for self-stabilizing skip graphs
Peer-to-peer systems rely on scalable overlay networks that enable efficient routing between its members. Hypercubic topologies facilitate such operations while each node only nee...
