Fast Breadth-First Search in Still Less Space
It is shown that a breadth-first search in a directed or undirected graph
with vertices and edges can be carried out in time with
bits of working memory
Marvin: A Heuristic Search Planner with Online Macro-Action Learning
This paper describes Marvin, a planner that competed in the Fourth
International Planning Competition (IPC 4). Marvin uses
action-sequence-memoisation techniques to generate macro-actions, which are
then used during search for a solution plan. We provide an overview of its
architecture and search behaviour, detailing the algorithms used. We also
empirically demonstrate the effectiveness of its features in various planning
domains; in particular, the effects on performance due to the use of
macro-actions, the novel features of its search behaviour, and the native
support of ADL and Derived Predicates
Distributed-Memory Breadth-First Search on Massive Graphs
This chapter studies the problem of traversing large graphs using the
breadth-first search order on distributed-memory supercomputers. We consider
both the traditional level-synchronous top-down algorithm as well as the
recently discovered direction optimizing algorithm. We analyze the performance
and scalability trade-offs in using different local data structures such as CSR
and DCSC, enabling in-node multithreading, and graph decompositions such as 1D
and 2D decomposition.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1104.451
Theoretically Efficient Parallel Graph Algorithms Can Be Fast and Scalable
There has been significant recent interest in parallel graph processing due
to the need to quickly analyze the large graphs available today. Many graph
codes have been designed for distributed memory or external memory. However,
today even the largest publicly-available real-world graph (the Hyperlink Web
graph with over 3.5 billion vertices and 128 billion edges) can fit in the
memory of a single commodity multicore server. Nevertheless, most experimental
work in the literature report results on much smaller graphs, and the ones for
the Hyperlink graph use distributed or external memory. Therefore, it is
natural to ask whether we can efficiently solve a broad class of graph problems
on this graph in memory.
This paper shows that theoretically-efficient parallel graph algorithms can
scale to the largest publicly-available graphs using a single machine with a
terabyte of RAM, processing them in minutes. We give implementations of
theoretically-efficient parallel algorithms for 20 important graph problems. We
also present the optimizations and techniques that we used in our
implementations, which were crucial in enabling us to process these large
graphs quickly. We show that the running times of our implementations
outperform existing state-of-the-art implementations on the largest real-world
graphs. For many of the problems that we consider, this is the first time they
have been solved on graphs at this scale. We have made the implementations
developed in this work publicly-available as the Graph-Based Benchmark Suite
(GBBS).Comment: This is the full version of the paper appearing in the ACM Symposium
