Efficient Subgraph Matching on Billion Node Graphs
The ability to handle large scale graph data is crucial to an increasing
number of applications. Much work has been dedicated to supporting basic graph
operations such as subgraph matching, reachability, regular expression
matching, etc. In many cases, graph indices are employed to speed up query
processing. Typically, most indices require either super-linear indexing time
or super-linear indexing space. Unfortunately, for very large graphs,
super-linear approaches are almost always infeasible. In this paper, we study
the problem of subgraph matching on billion-node graphs. We present a novel
algorithm that supports efficient subgraph matching for graphs deployed on a
distributed memory store. Instead of relying on super-linear indices, we use
efficient graph exploration and massive parallel computing for query
processing. Our experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of performing
subgraph matching on web-scale graph data.Comment: VLDB201
DDSL: Efficient Subgraph Listing on Distributed and Dynamic Graphs
Subgraph listing is a fundamental problem in graph theory and has wide
applications in areas like sociology, chemistry, and social networks. Modern
graphs can usually be large-scale as well as highly dynamic, which challenges
the efficiency of existing subgraph listing algorithms. Recent works have shown
the benefits of partitioning and processing big graphs in a distributed system,
however, there is only few work targets subgraph listing on dynamic graphs in a
distributed environment. In this paper, we propose an efficient approach,
called Distributed and Dynamic Subgraph Listing (DDSL), which can incrementally
update the results instead of running from scratch. DDSL follows a general
distributed join framework. In this framework, we use a Neighbor-Preserved
storage for data graphs, which takes bounded extra space and supports dynamic
updating. After that, we propose a comprehensive cost model to estimate the I/O
cost of listing subgraphs. Then based on this cost model, we develop an
algorithm to find the optimal join tree for a given pattern. To handle dynamic
graphs, we propose an efficient left-deep join algorithm to incrementally
update the join results. Extensive experiments are conducted on real-world
datasets. The results show that DDSL outperforms existing methods in dealing
with both static dynamic graphs in terms of the responding time
Efficient mining of discriminative molecular fragments
Frequent pattern discovery in structured data is receiving
an increasing attention in many application areas of sciences. However, the computational complexity and the large amount of data to be explored often make the sequential algorithms unsuitable. In this context high performance distributed computing becomes a very interesting and promising approach. In this paper we present a parallel formulation of the frequent subgraph mining problem to discover interesting patterns in molecular compounds. The application is characterized by a highly irregular tree-structured computation. No estimation is available for task workloads, which show a power-law distribution in a wide range. The proposed approach allows dynamic resource aggregation and provides fault and latency tolerance. These features make the distributed application suitable for multi-domain heterogeneous environments, such as computational Grids. The distributed application has been evaluated on the well known National Cancer Institute’s HIV-screening dataset
