| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The goal of this research is to advance the understanding of fundamental algorithms for environments with uncertainty, namely, the distributed environment. We achieve this by presenting novel algorithms for fundamental graph problems (e.g,. combinatorial optimization, graph detection).
Furthermore, we show novel algorithms for the dynamic distributed setting which better captures real world systems. Finally, we go beyond worst-case analysis and consider the smoothed-complexity of fundamental problems in the dynamic distributed setting.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
We present new distributed algorithms for fundamental problems in the distributed setting. As many modern real world systems have a distributed aspect to them, our algorithm can be used to improve their performance of this systems in the future, and provide theoretical understanding in the present.
