Vasia Kalavri commented on FLINK-1536:
--------------------------------------

Hi [~rohit13k],
a graph in gelly is represented by 2 datasets; for vertices and edges. Datasets 
are distributed immutable collections of data. That is, additions or removals 
return a new Graph.

> Graph partitioning operators for Gelly

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1536
>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Gelly
>            Reporter: Vasia Kalavri

> Smart graph partitioning can significantly improve the performance and 
> scalability of graph analysis applications. Depending on the computation 
> pattern, a graph partitioning algorithm divides the graph into (maybe 
> overlapping) subgraphs, optimizing some objective. For example, if 
> communication is performed across graph edges, one might want to minimize the 
> edges that cross from one partition to another.
> The problem of graph partitioning is a well studied problem and several 
> algorithms have been proposed in the literature. The goal of this project 
> would be to choose a few existing partitioning techniques and implement the 
> corresponding graph partitioning operators for Gelly.
> Some related literature can be found [here| 
> http://www.citeulike.org/user/vasiakalavri/tag/graph-partitioning].
