Abstract: | O (c+d) steps using constant-size queues, where c is the congestion of the paths in the network, and d is the length of the longest path. The proof, however, used the Lovász Local Lemma and was not constructive. In this paper,
we show how to find such a schedule in time, with probability , for any positive constant β, where is the sum of the lengths of the paths taken by the packets in the network, and m is the number of edges used by some packet in the network. We also show how to parallelize the algorithm so that it runs
in NC. The method that we use to construct the schedules is based on the algorithmic form of the Lovász Local Lemma discovered
by Beck.
