Scalable Subgraph Enumeration in MapReduce

Summary: MapReduce-based subgraph enumeration via TwinTwigJoin, a left-deep-join framework using TwinTwig units (edge or two incident edges). Instance-optimal under ER graphs with an optimal join plan; three optimizations; adaptable to power-law graphs; extensive experiments on real graphs with billions of edges show substantial gains over prior approaches.
