Abstract
A cyclic graph may be partitioned. The partitions of the cyclic graph may include an acyclic component of the cyclic graph and a set of partitioned links. The partitions of the cyclic graph may have a particular order. The elements of the cyclic graph may be serialized with a particular serialization order. The serialization order of the elements of the cyclic graph may correspond to the order of the partitions of the cyclic graph. The elements of the acyclic component of the cyclic graph may be serialized before the elements of the set of partitioned links. A computer system may include a graph synchronization component configured to partition the cyclic graph and determine the serialization order of the elements of the cyclic graph. A serialization of the cyclic graph does serialize the elements of the cyclic graph in the determined serialization order.
