Claudio Martella updated GIRAPH-118:


  Description: 
initialize() can receive a null parameter for messages (at least that's what 
EdgeListVertex does). We should avoid that and pass an empty Iterable instead. 
That should be cheap for us inside of the InputFormat, just passing a static 
immutable empty list.

setMessages(IterableM) should be changed to putMessages(IterableM). the set 
prefix suggests an assignment, while setMessages is used to transfer the 
messages to the internal datastructure the user is responsible for. 
putMessages() should clarify this.

As a user with some experience with Giraph, it took a while to rationalize the

Hi Sebastian,

Great. It might be good to either (a) copy giraph-dev@ on the
discussion to keep the rest of the community outside of the specific
sub-group you're talking to aware of whats up; or (b) send a summary
of the discussion here. It's important to demonstrate that discussion
within Apache Giraph is happening *on the mailing lists* here.

Cheers,
Chris

@Chris I have to clarify this. I haven't been discussing Giraph-specific
issues outside of the mailinglist, I just know Eugenia and know that she
is working on porting some algorithms onto Pregel-like platforms.

@Eugenia Sorry for the confusion :) We (the Giraph community) stumbled
upon your current work at
https://grape.ics.uci.edu/wiki/asterix/raw-attachment/wiki/cs295-2011-fall-ProjectTeams/Team_8_Report.pdf.


It would be great if you could share your experiences and tell us about
the problems you encountered (especially the design decisions you're
criticizing). If you want to, it would also be great if you could
contribute back your code.

Best,
Sebastian

some weird code

2012-01-06 Thread Claudio Martella
Hello,

I hope somebody can shed some light on a piece of code i'm looking at
while working on GIRAPH-45 (and this code is also the object of
GIRAPH-95, so we'd probably get two birds with one stone here).

The code is taking care of vertex resolving in
BasicRPCCommunication::prepareSuperstep():
[line 1091]:
   if (vertex != null) {
((MutableVertexI, V, E, M) vertex).setVertexId(vertexIndex);
partition.putVertex((BasicVertexI, V, E, M) vertex);
} else if (originalVertex != null) {
partition.removeVertex(originalVertex.getVertexId());
}

First, vertex cannot be null as it's resolved by vertexRevolver, but i
guess it's a sanity check. But the real question is: why would you
setVertex() considering it's been already initialized correctly in
vertexResolver?
Am I missing something or did I just realize that GIRAPH-95 is solved
by just removing that line? :)

Thanks

Actually it can be null.  Since user's can implement their own vertex 
resolver, they are allowed to return null from the javadoc.


/**

 * @param vertexChanges Changes that happened to this vertex or 
null if none
 * @param messages messages received in the last superstep or null 
if none
 * @return Vertex to be returned, if null, and a vertex currently 
exists

 * it will be removed
 */


Am I missing something or did I just realize that GIRAPH-95 is solved
by just removing that line? :)

Thanks

Well, not sure about that.  The set is done there I think to ensure 
safety.  Here's the issue:  Suppose that the resolve() doesn't set the 
vertex id correctly (i.e. in this partition).  That would be a bug and 
probably cause issues.  Probably this should be changed to be a check 
though.  Something like...


if (vertex != null) {
if (vertex.getVertexId().equals(vertexIndex)) {
throw new 
IllegalStateException(BasicRPCCommunications: Illegal to set the vertex 
index differently from  + vertexIndex);

if (originalVertex == null) {
partition.putVertex((BasicVertexI, V, E, M) vertex);
} else {
partition.removeVertex(originalVertex.getVertexId());
}
}

What do you think?

Avery

Apparently the initialize() issue is also true for other parameters as well 
such as the edges (and outside of the documentation also vertexId: I'm looking 
at TestEdgeListVertex i.e.).

With this little one I just touched the putMessages() issue, probably we can 
think about the initialize() later.
