Title
Scalable generation of scale-free graphs.
Abstract
We explain how massive instances of scale-free graphs following the Barabasi-Albert preferential attachment model can be generated very quickly in an embarrassingly parallel way. This makes this popular model available for studying big data graph problems. As a demonstration, we generated a Petaedge graph ( 10 1 5 edges) in less than an hour. A parallel generator for Barabasi-Albert scalefree graphs.The algorithm is at the same time fast and simple.No communication between the processors is needed.Experiments with up to a petaedge ( 10 1 5 edges) are presented.
