GRAIL: a scalable index for reachability queries in very large graphs

Abstract: Given a large directed graph, rapidly answering reachability queries between source and target nodes is an important problem. Existing methods for reachability tradeoff indexing time and space versus query time performance. However, the biggest limitation of existing methods is that they do not scale to very large real-world graphs. We present a simple yet scalable reachability index, called GRAIL, that is based on the idea of randomized interval labeling and that can effectively handle very large graphs. Base… Show more

“…This optimization is an example of an exploitation of CP-7.1 Path pattern reuse, which for this query would result in an improvement of ≈ 1.8 − 2× over simple top-k pushdown, as shown in Table 1. Reachability indexes are a form of reusing patterns and are an active research area [34]. This chokepoint was partially designed to stimulate such research efforts.…”

“…The recently proposed GRAIL reachability index [22], [23] further extends this idea by labeling the vertices with approximate intervals: Suppose that for every node v we replace the set I(v) by a single interval…”

“…However, especially in the case of positive queries, a large portion of the graph still has to be expanded. While extensions have been proposed to GRAIL to improve performance on positive queries [23], the processing time in these cases remains high. Furthermore, while an increase of the number of intervals assigned to the nodes potentially reduces false positive elements, no guarantee can be made due to the heuristic nature of the underlying algorithm.…”
