Abstract
A graph sampling and random walk acceleration method and system based on GPU. The graph data is read from the storage medium through the CPU and converted into CSR format and then output to the GPU. The GPU works based on the defined working mode: Real-time generation of alias table and sampling; or offline judgment whether there is a pre-generated alias table and sampling, which executes the alias method efficiently and in parallel, and can significantly improve the performance of graph data processing on the same hardware platform, including improving the sampling throughput and reducing the overall running time.
