Abstract:
There are numerous applications that need to deal with a large graph,
including bioinformatics, social science, link analysis, citation
analysis, and collaborative networks. A fundamental task is to query
whether a node is reachable from another node in a large graph, which
is called a reachability query. In this talk, we discuss how to
precompute graph labeling for a large graph efficiently, in order to
process reachability queries online.
