A Uniform Framework for Ad-Hoc Indexes to Answer Reachability Queries on Large Graphs
Graph-structured databases and related problems such as reachability query processing have been increasingly relevant to many applications such as XML databases, biological databases, social network analysis and the Semantic Web. To efficiently evaluate reachability queries on large graph-structured databases, there has been a host of recent research on graph indexing. To date, reachability indexes are generally applied to the entire graph. This can often be suboptimal if the graph is large or/and its subgraphs are diverse in structure. In this paper, we propose a uniform framework to support existing reachability indexing for subgraphs of a given graph. This in turn supports fast reachability query processing in large graph-structured databases. The contributions of our uniform framework are as follows: (1) We formally define a graph framework that facilitates indexing subgraphs, as opposed to the entire graph. (2) We propose a heuristic algorithm to partition a given graph into subgr...
