Abstract: An in-memory graph query runtime is integrated inside a database management system and is capable of performing simple patter-matching queries against homogeneous graphs. The runtime efficiently combines breadth-first (BFS) and depth-first (DFS) neighbor traversal algorithms to achieve a hybrid runtime that takes the best from both sides. As a result, the hybrid runtime is able to process arbitrarily large queries with a fixed amount of memory, optimizing for memory locality.

Abstract: A data management system and method for accelerating shared file checkpointing. Written application data is aggregated in an application data file created in a local burst buffer memory at a compute node, and an associated data mapping built index to maintain information related to the offsets into a shared file at which segments of the application data is to be stored in a parallel file system, and where in the buffer those segments are located. The node asynchronously transfers a data file containing the application data and the associated data mapping index to a file server for shared file storage. The data management system and method further accelerates shared file checkpointing in which a shared file, together with a map file that specifies how the shared file is to be distributed, is asynchronously transferred to local burst buffer memories at the nodes to accelerate reading of the shared file.

Abstract: Users requesting a report are given the option of generating a live report or viewing a previous generated “report snapshot”, which may be a version of the report that was previously generated and stored. The report snapshot may have been generated in response to a previous request for the report, or it may have been generated automatically in response to some trigger event or on a period basis. In response to the user's selection of a live report, the report is generated from data stored in a database, and provided to the user when ready. In addition, the live report is stored as a report snapshot in a storage device. In response to the user's selection of a snapshot, the previously generated report snapshot is retrieved from the storage device and provided to the user. Multiple snapshots for the same report can be made available.
