Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention provides a computing system. The computing system includes a processor and a computer-readable storage medium. The computer-readable storage medium stores instructions which when executed by the processor cause the processor to perform a method. The method comprises obtaining from a first data structure one or more pointers to corresponding elements in a second data structure. A respective vertex of a graph corresponds to an element in the first data structure and the graph supports multiple edge types between respective vertex pairs. The method further comprises obtaining from the second data structure a respective edge type associated with a respective vertex and a respective successor vertex of the edge type and enumerating a respective successor vertex of an edge type of a vertex from the second data structure based on a pointer in an element in the first data structure associated with the vertex.
