Abstract

In the DO-ALL problem, a set of t tasks must be performed by using a synchronous network of p processors. Processors may fail by permanent crashing. We investigate the time and the work complexity of F-reliable protocols for the DO-ALL problem on 1-hop wireless networks without collision detection. An F-reliable protocol is a protocol that guarantees the execution of all tasks if at most F p faults happen during its execution. Previous results for this model are known only for the case F = p - 1.We obtain the following tight bounds. - The completion time of F-reliable protocols on 1-hop wireless networks without collision detection is &Theta(t/p - F + min {tF/p, F + 驴t}). - The work complexity of F-reliable protocols on 1-hop wireless networks without collision detection is 驴(t + F 驴 min{t, F}). The two lower bounds hold even when the faults only happen at the very beginning of the protocol execution.
