✦ Synopsis
In this paper we consider scheduling of send-graphs (i.e., a root sends a message to all its leaves) and receive-graphs (i.e., a root receives messages from all its leaves) under the LogP-model. It turns out that even for these simple task-graphs it is NP-complete to decide whether there is a schedule under the LogP-model with makespan at most D for any fixed number of processors. We present approximation algorithms for these problems.

We show that, in a claw-free graph, Hamilton-connectedness is preserved under the operation of local completion performed at a vertex with 2-connected neighborhood. This result proves a conjecture by Bollobás et al.
