Abstract

The token distribution problem was originally defined by Peleg and Upfal in their seminal paper [4]. Consider a network of n processes and n tokens. Initially, the tokens are arbitrarily distributed among processes but with up to a maximum of l tokens in any process. The problem is to uniformly distribute the tokens such that every process ends up with exactly one token.
