Abstract

A method, an apparatus and an article of manufacture for processing a random-walk based vertex-proximity query on a graph. The method includes computing at least one vertex cluster and corresponding meta-information from a graph, dynamically updating the clustering and corresponding meta-information upon modification of the graph, and identifying a vertex cluster relevant to at least one query vertex and aggregating corresponding meta-information of the cluster to process the query.
