Towards Sufficient GPU-accelerated Dynamic Graph Management: Survey and Experiment

Summary: Surveys GPU-accelerated dynamic graph management and introduces a conceptual model of its components, primitives, and optimizations. A unified evaluation of six systems reveals workload-dependent tradeoffs, favoring hashing for updates and hybrid storage for versatility. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
