36th ACM International Conference on Supercomputing 2022June 27-30, 2022Acceptance Rate: 25% DOI: 10.1145/3524059.3532365Authors’ Copy (PDF Format) The Minimum Spanning Forest (MSF) problem finds usage in many different applications. While theoretical analysis shows that linear-time solutions exist, in practice, parallel MSF algorithms remain computationally demanding due to the continuously increasing size […]

2021 IEEE International Symposium on Workload Characterization (IISWC’21)November 7-9, 2021Acceptance Rate: 39.5%DOI: 10.1109/IISWC53511.2021.00020 Authors’ Copy (PDF Format) Graph reordering algorithms try to improve locality of graph algorithms by assigning new IDs to vertices that ultimately changes the order of random memory accesses. While graph relabeling algorithms such as SlashBurn, GOrder, […]

Relabeling (reordering) algorithms aim to improve the poor memory locality of graph processing by changing the order of vertices. This paper analyses the functionality of three state-of-the-art relabeling algorithms: SlashBurn, GOrder, and Rabbit-Order for real-world graphs. We use a number of techniques to explain how locality is affected by relabeling algorithms and how locality of different datasets (like social networks, web graphs) is enhanced by relabeling algorithms. This paper also investigates why different push and pull traversal of different datasets show different behaviours by introducing push locality and pull locality.
