Tight bounds for parallel randomized load balancing

Given a distributed system of n balls and n bins, how evenly can we distribute the balls to the bins, minimizing communication? The fastest non-adaptive and symmetric algorithm achieving a constant maximum bin load requires Θ(loglogn) rounds, and any such algorithm running for r∈O(1) rounds incurs a...
