Distributed network size estimation and average degree estimation and control in networks isomorphic to directed graphs
(2012)Many properties of interest in graph structures are based on the nodes' average degree (i.e., the average number of edges incident to/from each node). In this work, we present asynchronous distributed algorithms, based on ...
