Graph Preliminaries
n=|V| (number of vertices)m=|E| (number of edges)D=diameter (max #hops between any pair of vertices)• Edges can be directed or undirected, weighted or not.• They can even have attributes (i.e. semantic graphs)• Sequences of edges <u1,u2>, <u2,u3>, … ,<un-1,un> is a
path from u1 to un. Its length is the sum of its weights.
Define: Graph G = (V,E)- a set of vertices and a set of
edges between vertices

Network Analysis for Neurosciences
Graph-theoretical models are used to predict the course of degenerative illnesses like Alzheimer’s.
Some disease indicators:- Deviation from small-world property- Emergence of “epicenters” with disease-associated patterns
Vertices: ROI (regions of interest) Edges: structural/functional connectivity

Characterizing Graph-theoretic computations
• graph sparsity (m/n ratio)• static/dynamic nature• weighted/unweighted, weight distribution• vertex degree distribution• directed/undirected• simple/multi/hyper graph• problem size• granularity of computation at nodes/edges• domain-specific characteristics
• paths• clusters• partitions• matchings• patterns• orderings
Input data
Problem: Find ***
Factors that influence choice of algorithm
Graph kernel
• traversal• shortest path algorithms• flow algorithms• spanning tree algorithms• topological sort …..
Graph problems are often recast as sparse linear algebra (e.g., partitioning) or linear programming (e.g., matching) computations

• Many PRAM graph algorithms in 1980s.• Idealized parallel shared memory system model• Unbounded number of synchronous processors;
no synchronization, communication cost; no parallel overhead
• EREW (Exclusive Read Exclusive Write), CREW (Concurrent Read Exclusive Write)
• Measuring performance: space and time complexity; total number of operations (work)
The PRAM model
![Page 15: Parallel Graph Algorithms](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/5681637f550346895dd4605d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Pros– Simple and clean semantics.– The majority of theoretical parallel algorithms are designed
using the PRAM model.– Independent of the communication network topology.
• Cons– Not realistic, too powerful communication model.– Communication costs are ignored.– Synchronized processors.– No local memory.– Big-O notation is often misleading.
PRAM Pros and Cons

• Prefix sums • Symmetry breaking• Pointer jumping• List ranking• Euler tours• Vertex collapse• Tree contraction[some covered in the “Tricks with Trees” lecture]

Static case• Dense graphs (m = Θ(n2)): adjacency matrix commonly used.• Sparse graphs: adjacency lists, compressed sparse matrices
Dynamic• representation depends on common-case query• Edge insertions or deletions? Vertex insertions or deletions?
Edge weight updates?• Graph update rate• Queries: connectivity, paths, flow, etc.
• Optimizing for locality a key design consideration.
Data structures: graph representation

• Each processor stores the entire graph (“full replication”)• Each processor stores n/p vertices and all adjacencies
out of these vertices (“1D partitioning”)• How to create these “p” vertex partitions?
– Graph partitioning algorithms: recursively optimize for conductance (edge cut/size of smaller partition)
– Randomly shuffling the vertex identifiers ensures that edge count/processor are roughly the same

• Consider a logical 2D processor grid (pr * pc = p) and the matrix representation of the graph
• Assign each processor a sub-matrix (i.e, the edges within the sub-matrix)

• Implementations are typically array-based for performance (e.g. CSR representation).
• Concurrency = minimize synchronization (span)• Where is the data? Find the distribution that
minimizes inter-processor communication.• Memory access patterns
– Regularize them (spatial locality)– Minimize DRAM traffic (temporal locality)
• Work-efficiency– Is (Parallel time) * (# of processors) = (Serial work)?

Classical (top-down) algorithm is optimal in worst case, but pessimistic for low-diameter graphs (previous slide).
Bottom-up BFS algorithm
Direction-optimizing approach: - Switch from top-down to
bottom-up search - When the majority of the
vertices are discovered.[Read paper for exact heuristic]

PHAST – hardware accelerated shortest path trees
• Specifically designed for road networks• Fill-in can be much higher for other graphs (Hint: think about sparse Gaussian Elimination)
• Road networks are (almost) planar.
• Planar graphs have separators.
• Good separators lead to orderings with minimal fill.

Algorithms for Computing Betweenness

• Graph with vertices V = {1,2,…,n}
• A set S of vertices is independent if no two vertices in S are neighbors.
• An independent set S is maximal if it is impossible to add another vertex and stay independent
• An independent set S is maximum if no other independent set has more vertices
• Finding a maximum independent set is intractably difficult (NP-hard)
• Finding a maximal independent set is easy, at least on one processor.
The set of red vertices S = {4, 5} is independent
and is maximalbut not maximum

Strongly connected components of directed graph
• Sequential: use depth-first search (Tarjan); work=O(m+n) for m=|E|, n=|V|.
• DFS seems to be inherently sequential.
• Parallel: divide-and-conquer and BFS (Fleischer et al.); worst-case span O(n) but good in practice on many graphs.

Fleischer/Hendrickson/Pinar algorithm
- Partition the given graph into three disjoint subgraphs
- Each can be processed independently/recursively
FW(v): vertices reachable from vertex v. BW(v): vertices from which v is reachable.
Lemma: FW(v)∩ BW(v) is a unique SCC for any v. For every other SCC s, either (a) s ⊂ FW(v)\BW(v),(b) s BW(v)\FW(v),⊂(c) s V \ (FW(v) BW(v)).⊂ ∪

• Graph topology assumptions in classical algorithms do not match real-world datasets
• Parallelization strategies at loggerheads with techniques for enhancing memory locality
• Classical “work-efficient” graph algorithms may not fully exploit new architectural features– Increasing complexity of memory hierarchy, processor heterogeneity,
wide SIMD.• Tuning implementation to minimize parallel overhead is non-
trivial– Shared memory: minimizing overhead of locks, barriers.– Distributed memory: bounding message buffer sizes, bundling
messages, overlapping communication w/ computation.

• Best algorithm depends on the input.• Communication costs (and hence data
distribution) is crucial for distributed memory. • Locality is crucial for in-node performance.• Graph traversal (BFS) is fundamental building
block for more complex algorithms.• Best parallel algorithm can be significantly
different than the best serial algorithm.
