Abstract

Many large scale applications need data sets too large to fit completely inside a computer's internal memory. Thus the input/output (I/O) communication between the fast internal memory and the slow external memory (disks) can create a performance bottleneck. That is where the I/O operation efficient algorithms solve such problems that involve large data structures.

Given that there are already different methods proposed for solving the breadth first search (BFS) problem on very large graphs, for example Munagala-Ranade and Mehlhorn-Meyer randomized BFS, this thesis proposes to expand the work done in this direction and experiment with a distinct approach. In this thesis we propose different randomized heuristics for approximating the average diameter of various large graph classes, using external memory algorithms.
