Jayamal Jayamaha commented on GIRAPH-1135: ------------------------------------------ Hi I am a undergraduate student at university of peradeniya faculty of engineering department of computer engineering I have a fair knowledge of Java/ GUI/C . I like to contribute to this project t in gsoc 2017 can you send me more details about this project ???? > Implementing Minimum Spanning Tree in vertex-centric model > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: GIRAPH-1135 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GIRAPH-1135 > Project: Giraph > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: examples > Reporter: Claudio Martella > Assignee: Alessio Arleo > Labels: gsoc2017 > > A Minimum Spanning Tree is a tree that spans all the vertices of a connected > graph such that the sum of the weights is minimum among all possible such > trees. Finding Minimum Spanning Tree on a large graph has many applications. > MST algorithm is one of the basic graph algorithms. Currently, Giraph has an > implementation of Page Rank algorithm as part of its source code. An > implementation of MST algorithm will strengthen our use cases. > Recently Mohsen Ghaffari et al. have shown that MST can be calculated in > O(log* n) rounds of communications in Congested Clique model [1]. Congested > Clique have been shown to be the impromptu distributed algorithmic model > which has direct relations with Pregel. We can try to implement the paradigm > in Giraph. > [1] MST in Log-Star Rounds of Congested Clique :- > http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2933103 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
