Title:Towards Efficient Path Query on Social Network with Hybrid RDF Management

Abstract:The scalability and exibility of Resource Description Framework(RDF) model make it ideally suited for representing online social networks(OSN). One basic operation in OSN is to find chains of relations,such as k-Hop friends. Property path query in SPARQL can express this type of operation, but its implementation suffers from performance problem considering the ever growing data size and complexity of this http URL this paper, we present a main memory/disk based hybrid RDF data management framework for efficient property path query. In this hybrid framework, we realize an efficient in-memory algebra operator for property path query using graph traversal, and estimate the cost of this operator to cooperate with existing cost-based optimization. Experiments on benchmark and real dataset demonstrated that our approach can achieve a good tradeoff between data load expense and online query performance.
