Abstract
Embodiments are disclosed for striping a directed graph, e.g., a social graph, so as to efficiently perform an operation to each node in the directed graph. At least some of the embodiments can select first and second sets of nodes from the directed graph to form first and second stripes. The first and second sets of nodes are selected, for example, based on available computing resources. First and second intermediate results can be generated by performing the operation to each node of the first and the second stripes, respectively. The operation iteratively performs a superstep. The first and the second intermediate results are combined to form a collective result as an output of the superstep.
