Compared with relational database (RDB), graph database (GDB) is a more intuitive expression of the real world. Each node in the GDB is a both storage and logic unit. Since it is connected to its neighboring nodes through edges, and its…
Graph traversals are a basic but fundamental ingredient for a variety of graph algorithms and graph-oriented queries. To achieve the best possible query performance, they need to be implemented at the core of a database management system…
Regular path queries (RPQs) the ubiquitous mechanism for querying data graphs of partially known structure. RPQs are in essence regular expressions over the edge symbols. The answer to an RPQ on a given graph (database) is the set of pairs…
Graph algorithms play an important role in many computer science areas. In order to solve problems that can be modeled using graphs, it is necessary to use a data structure that can represent those graphs in an efficient manner. On top of…

Graph-based indexing is the dominant approach for approximate nearest neighbor search in vector databases, offering high recall with low latency across billions of vectors. However, in such indices, the edge set of the proximity graph is…
Subgraph queries also known as subgraph isomorphism search is a fundamental problem in querying graph-like structured data. It consists to enumerate the subgraphs of a data graph that match a query graph. This problem arises in many…
Formalizing an RDF abstract graph model to be compatible with the RDF formal semantics has remained one of the foundational problems in the Semantic Web. In this paper, we propose a new formal graph model for RDF datasets. This model allows…
The plethora of graphs and relational data give rise to many interesting graph-relational queries in various domains, e.g., finding related proteins satisfying relational predicates in a biological network. The maturity of RDBMSs motivated…
In this paper we present an algorithmic framework for solving a class of combinatorial optimization problems on graphs with bounded pathwidth. The problems are NP-hard in general, but solvable in linear time on this type of graphs. The…
A path graph is the intersection graph of paths in a tree. A directed path graph is the intersection graph of paths in a directed tree. Even if path graphs and directed path graphs are characterized very similarly, their recognition…
We consider a database composed of a set of conceptual graphs. Using conceptual graphs and graph homomorphism it is possible to build a basic query-answering mechanism based on semantic search. Graph homomorphism defines a partial order…
Regular path queries (RPQs) are fundamental for path-constrained reachability analysis, and more complex variants such as conjunctive regular path queries (CRPQs) are increasingly used in graph analytics. Evaluating these queries is…
A data graph is a convenient paradigm for supporting keyword search that takes into account available semantic structure and not just textual relevance. However, the problem of constructing data graphs that facilitate both efficiency and…
Recent advances have demonstrated the effectiveness of graph-based learning on relational databases (RDBs) for predictive tasks. Such approaches require transforming RDBs into graphs, a process we refer to as RDB-to-graph modeling, where…
In this paper we present a new approach for distributed DBMSs called P4DB, that uses a programmable switch to accelerate OLTP workloads. The main idea of P4DB is that it implements a transaction processing engine on top of a P4-programmable…
A graph database is a digraph whose arcs are labeled with symbols from a fixed alphabet. A regular graph pattern (RGP) is a digraph whose edges are labeled with regular expressions over the alphabet. RGPs model navigational queries for…
Regular Path Queries (RPQs), which are essentially regular expressions to be matched against the labels of paths in labeled graphs, are at the core of graph database query languages like SPARQL. A way to solve RPQs is to translate them into…
One major technical challenge for modern analytical database systems is how to leverage GPU to exploit their massive parallelism and high bandwidth. Yet, existing GPU-driven database engines suffer from inefficiencies caused by frequent…
Modern graph database query languages such as GQL, SQL/PGQ, and their academic predecessor G-Core promote paths to first-class citizens in the sense that paths that match regular path queries can be returned to the user. This brings a…
