Gossip monoids form an algebraic model of networks with exclusive, transient connections in which nodes, when they form a connection, exchange all known information. They also arise naturally in pure mathematics, as the monoids generated by the set of all equivalence relations on a given finite set under relational composition. We prove that a number of important decision problems for these monoids (including the membership problem, and hence the problem of deciding whether a given state of knowledge can arise in a network of the kind under consideration) are NP-complete. As well as being of interest in their own right, these results shed light on the apparent difficulty of establishing the cardinalities of the gossip monoids: a problem which has attracted some attention in the last few years.

We show the NP-Completeness of two processor scheduling with tasks of execution time 1 or 2 units and unit interprocessor communication latency. We develop a model of scheduling in the presence of communication contention, and show the NP-Completeness of two processor scheduling with unit execution time tasks in our model.

We investigate the intersection of Church-Rosser languages and (strongly) context-free languages. The intersection is still a proper superset of the deterministic context-free languages as well as of their reversals, while its membership problem is solvable in linear time. For the problem whether a given Church-Rosser or context-free language belongs to the intersection we show completeness for the second level of the arithmetic hierarchy. The equivalence of Church-Rosser and context-free languages is Π1-complete. It is proved that all considered intersections are pairwise incomparable. Finally, closure properties under several operations are investigated.
