They should all be implemented. =)

Does removeVertexRequest(I vertexId) have to be implemented? Is there
any pre-defined class for this?

Yes, this is one of the great things about Giraph (not many other graph

Hi,
I wanted to do some computation on graph and delete some edges between
supersteps. Can this be done using giraph?? I have heard of
MutableVertex class but I dont know whether it can be used to delete
edges. Also is MutableVertex abstract class and has to be
implemented??

Regards,
Akshay
