Abstract
An RDBMS specifies a graph algorithm function (GAF) that takes a graph object as input and returns a logical graph object as output. GAFs are used within graph queries to compute temporary and output properties ('GAF-computed properties'), which are live for the duration of the query cursor execution. GAF-computed output properties are accessible in the enclosing graph pattern matching query as though they were part of the input graph object of the GAF. Temporary cursor-duration tables are generated for the query cursor during compilation of a graph query that includes a GAF, and are used to store the GAF-computed properties. Each temporary table corresponds to one of the primary tables of the input graph, and includes, as a foreign key, primary key information from the corresponding primary table.
