A Universal Scheme for Dynamic Partitioned Shortest Path Index
arxiv(2023)
摘要
Shortest path (SP) computation is the fundamental operation in various
networks such as urban networks, logistic networks, communication networks,
social networks, etc. With the development of technology and societal
expansions, those networks tend to be massive. This, in turn, causes
deteriorated performance of SP computation, and graph partitioning is commonly
leveraged to scale up the SP algorithms. However, the partitioned shortest path
(PSP) index has never been systematically investigated and theoretically
analyzed, and there is a lack of experimental comparison among different PSP
indexes. Moreover, few studies have explored PSP index maintenance in dynamic
networks. Therefore, in this paper, we systematically analyze the dynamic PSP
index by proposing a universal scheme for it. Specifically, we first propose
two novel partitioned shortest path strategies (No-boundary and Post-boundary
strategies) to improve the performance of PSP indexes and design the
corresponding index maintenance approaches to deal with dynamic scenarios. Then
we categorize the partition methods from the perspective of partition structure
to facilitate the selection of partition methods in the PSP index. Furthermore,
we propose a universal scheme for designing the PSP index by coupling its three
dimensions (i.e. PSP strategy, partition structure, and SP algorithm). Based on
this scheme, we propose five new PSP indexes with prominent performance in
either query or update efficiency. Lastly, extensive experiments are
implemented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed PSP scheme, with
valuable guidance provided on the PSP index design.
