Efficient GPU-Accelerated Subgraph Matching

Introduction

Subgraph matching is a basic operation in graph analytics, finding all occurrences of a query graph Q in a data graph G. A common approach is to first filter out non-candidate vertices in G, and then order the vertices in Q to enumerate results. Recent work has started to utilize the GPU to accelerate subgraph matching. However, the effectiveness of current GPU-based filtering and ordering methods is limited, and the result enumeration often runs out of memory quickly. To address these problems, we propose EGSM, an effcient approach to GPU-based subgraph matching. Speciffcally, we design a data structure Cuckoo trie to support dynamic maintenance of candidates for filtering, and order query vertices based on estimated numbers of candidate vertices on the fly. Furthermore, we perform a hybrid breadth-first and depth-first search with memory management for result enumeration. Consequently, EGSM significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art GPU-accelerated algorithms, including GSI and CuTS.

Compile

Our program requires cmake (Version 3.21.3), Make (Version 3.82), GCC (Version 11.2.0), and nvcc (Version 11.7). One can compile the code by executing the following commands.

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
cd ..

Execute

After a successful compilation, the binary file is created under the build/ directory. One can execute EGSM using the following command.

./build/EGSM -q <query-graph-path> -d <data-graph-path>

Commandline Parameters

Other commandline parameters supported by the framework are listed in the following table.

Parameters	Description	Valid Value	Default Value
-m	Enumeration method.	BFS-DFS/BFS/DFS	BFS-DFS
--f3	Enable the third filtering step or not.	on/off	on
--f3start	Start vertex of the third filtering step.	0-4294967295	4294967295
--ao	Enable adaptive ordering or not.	on/off	on
--lb	Enable load balancing or not.	on/off	on
--gpu	GPU ID for execution.	0-4294967295	0

Input File Format

Both the input query graph and data graph are vertex-labeled. Each graph starts with 't N M' where N is the number of vertices and M is the number of edges. Each vertex is represented by a distinct unsigned integer (from 0 to 4294967295). There is at most one edge between two arbitrary vertices. A vertex and an edge are formatted as v <vertex-id> <vertex-label> <vertex-degree> and e <vertex-id-1> <vertex-id-2>, respectively. The two endpoints of an edge must appear before the edge. For example,

t 8 9
v 0 13 3
v 1 0 2
v 2 8 3
v 3 11 4
v 4 9 1
v 5 10 2
v 6 11 2
v 7 3 1
e 0 1
e 0 2
e 0 5
e 1 3
e 2 3
e 2 5
e 3 4
e 3 6
e 6 7
