Abstract

In this paper we study the message complexity of the problem of distributively electing a leader in chordal rings. We present an election algorithm for a class of chordal rings with constant number of chords at each processor and O( n log log n) message complexity. We also prove that O(log log n) chords at each processor suffice to obtain an O( n) algorithm. This improves a previous work where O(log n) chords at each processor give an O( n) election algorithm. All algorithms are referred to base 2.
