We present scalable first hitting time methods for finding a collection of nodes that enables the fastest time for the spread of consensus in a network. That is
In a model of network communication based on a random walk in an undirected graph, what subset of nodes (subject to constraints on its size), enable the fastest
We consider the problem of identifying a subset of nodes in a network that will enable the fastest spread of information in a decentralized environment. In a
Suppose we seek a set of nodes in a network that will enable the fastest spread of information in a decentralized communication environment. If communication
