University of Crete
Thesis: Locality Optimizations Distributed Graph Analysis Computations Supervisor: Polyvios Pratikakis My Bachelor’s thesis was based on Graph Analysis and Management on Distributed Systems. The goal of my work was to understand how the different partition strategies implemented on GraphX Spark Api can affect the performance of the graph analysis algorithm executed on distributed systems. The choice of a partition strategy is a multifaceted problem because it depends on the certain graph algorithm that will be run, the number of machines, the number of partitions and the graph dataset characterization.
