Performance Comparisons of Self-stabilizing Algorithms for Maximal Independent Sets
Sensor networks, such as ultra-wideband sensors for the smart warehouse, may need to run distributed algorithms for automatically determining a topological layout. In this paper, we present 5 different self-stabilizing algorithms (their central and distributed counterparts) for determining maximal independent sets. The performance of the algorithms, in terms of time complexity, simulation analysis, and size of maximal independent sets found are then compared.
