In todays Web and social network environments, query workloads include ad hoc and OLAP queries, as well as iterative algorithms that analyze data relationships (e.g., link analysis, clustering, learning). Modern DBMSs support ad hoc and OLAP queries, but most are not robust enough to scale to large clusters. Conversely, cloud platforms like MapReduce execute chains of batch tasks across clusters in a fault tolerant way, but have too much overhead to support ad hoc queries. Moreover, both classes of platform incur significant overhead in executing iterative data analysis algorithms. Most such iterative algorithms repeatedly refine portions of their answers, until some convergence criterion is reached. However, general cloud platforms typically must reprocess all data in each step. DBMSs that support recursive SQL are more efficient in that they propagate only the changes in each step -- but they still accumulate each iterations state, even if it is no longer useful. User-defined functions are also typically harder to write for DBMSs than for cloud platforms. We seek to unify the strengths of both styles of platforms, with a focus on supporting iterative computations in which changes, in the form of deltas, are propagated from iteration to iteration, and state is efficiently updated in an extensible way. We present a programming model oriented around deltas, describe how we execute and optimize such programs in our REX runtime system, and validate that our platform also handles failures gracefully. We experimentally validate our techniques, and show speedups over the competing methods ranging from 2.5 to nearly 100 times.

In this paper, we study how the Pruned Landmark Labeling (PPL) algorithm can be parallelized in a scalable fashion, producing the same results as the sequential algorithm. More specifically, we parallelize using a Vertex-Centric (VC) computational mo
del on a modern SIMD powered multicore architecture. We design a new VC-PLL algorithm that resolves the apparent mismatch between the inherent sequential dependence of the PLL algorithm and the Vertex- Centric (VC) computing model. Furthermore, we introduce a novel batch execution model for VC computation and the BVC-PLL algorithm to reduce the computational inefficiency in VC-PLL. Quite surprisingly, the theoretical analysis reveals that under a reasonable assumption, BVC-PLL has lower computational and memory access costs than PLL and indicates it may run faster than PLL as a sequential algorithm. We also demonstrate how BVC-PLL algorithm can be extended to handle directed graphs and weighted graphs and how it can utilize the hierarchical parallelism on a modern parallel computing architecture. Extensive experiments on real-world graphs not only show the sequential BVC-PLL can run more than two times faster than the original PLL, but also demonstrates its parallel efficiency and scalability.
This paper proposes a data tree-rewriting framework for modeling evolving documents. The framework is close to Guarded Active XML, a platform used for handling XML repositories evolving through web services. We focus on automatic verification of prop
erties of evolving documents that can contain data from an infinite domain. We establish the boundaries of decidability, and show that verification of a {em positive} fragment that can handle recursive service calls is decidable. We also consider bounded model-checking in our data tree-rewriting framework and show that it is $ exptime$-complete.
Knowledge bases of entities and relations (either constructed manually or automatically) are behind many real world search engines, including those at Yahoo!, Microsoft, and Google. Those knowledge bases can be viewed as graphs with nodes representin
g entities and edges representing (primary) relationships, and various studies have been conducted on how to leverage them to answer entity seeking queries. Meanwhile, in a complementary direction, analyses over the query logs have enabled researchers to identify entity pairs that are statistically correlated. Such entity relationships are then presented to search users through the related searches feature in modern search engines. However, entity relationships thus discovered can often be puzzling to the users because why the entities are connected is often indescribable. In this paper, we propose a novel problem called entity relationship explanation, which seeks to explain why a pair of entities are connected, and solve this challenging problem by integrating the above two complementary approaches, i.e., we leverage the knowledge base to explain the connections discovered between entity pairs. More specifically, we present REX, a system that takes a pair of entities in a given knowledge base as input and efficiently identifies a ranked list of relationship explanations. We formally define relationship explanations and analyze their desirable properties. Furthermore, we design and implement algorithms to efficiently enumerate and rank all relationship explanations based on multiple measures of interestingness. We perform extensive experiments over real web-scale data gathered from DBpedia and a commercial search engine, demonstrating the efficiency and scalability of REX. We also perform user studies to corroborate the effectiveness of explanations generated by REX.
With the multiplication of XML data sources, many XML data warehouse models have been proposed to handle data heterogeneity and complexity in a way relational data warehouses fail to achieve. However, XML-native database systems currently suffer from
limited performances, both in terms of manageable data volume and response time. Fragmentation helps address both these issues. Derived horizontal fragmentation is typically used in relational data warehouses and can definitely be adapted to the XML context. However, the number of fragments produced by classical algorithms is difficult to control. In this paper, we propose the use of a k-means-based fragmentation approach that allows to master the number of fragments through its $k$ parameter. We experimentally compare its efficiency to classical derived horizontal fragmentation algorithms adapted to XML data warehouses and show its superiority.
Persistent partitioning is effective in avoiding expensive shuffling operations. However it remains a significant challenge to automate this process for Big Data analytics workloads that extensively use user defined functions (UDFs), where sub-comput
ations are hard to be reused for partitionings compared to relational applications. In addition, functional dependency that is widely utilized for partitioning selection is often unavailable in the unstructured data that is ubiquitous in UDF-centric analytics. We propose the Lachesis system, which represents UDF-centric workloads as workflows of analyzable and reusable sub-computations. Lachesis further adopts a deep reinforcement learning model to infer which sub-computations should be used to partition the underlying data. This analysis is then applied to automatically optimize the storage of the data across applications to improve the performance and users productivity.
