HUGE: An Efficient and Scalable Subgraph Enumeration System

Summary: HUGE is a scalable distributed subgraph-enumeration system. Key ideas: optimiser, hybrid push/pull communication, 2-stage lock-free cache, BFS/DFS-adaptive scheduling, and two-layer load balancing—plug-in with existing subgraph algorithms for bounded-memory speedups.
