Paper accepted at Complex Networks '24
- 04.10.24: Our paper (authors: F. Brandt-Tumescheit, F. Gerharz, H. Meyerhenke) has been accepted at Complex Networks 2024. The paper proposes a dynamic algorithm for computing b-matching in graphs and yields a significant acceleration over static recomputation.
Welcome, Dominik!
- 01.10.24: A warm welcome to our new PhD student Dominik Schweisgut!
Paper accepted at ECML PKDD '24
- 17.07.24: Our paper Introducing Total Harmonic Resistance for Graph Robustness under Edge Deletions (authors: L. Berner, H. Meyerhenke) has been accepted at ECML PKDD 2024. The paper proposes a new graph robustness measure that can also handle disconnected graphs, a useful property for measuring how deleting edges changes the robustness of a graph.
Journal paper accepted by Information Sciences
- 22.06.24: Our paper Generic Network Sparsification via Degree- and Subgraph-based Edge Sampling (authors: Z. Su, Y. Liu, J. Kurths, H. Meyerhenke) has been accepted by Information Sciences, Elsevier. The paper proposes new methods to sparsify a graph in a property-preserving manner for faster downstream analysis.
Paper accepted at ICPP'24
- 10.06.24: Our paper Mapping Large Memory-constrained Workflows onto Heterogeneous Platforms (authors: S. Kulagina, H. Meyerhenke, A. Benoit) has been accepted at the ICPP'24. The paper presents an algorithm for scheduling workflows on a heterogeneous execution environment with constrained memory sizes.

Release 1.0 of simexpal - Simplifying Experimental Algorithmics
- 27.09.23: We are happy to announce the release v1.0 of our software simexpal! The name stands for "Simplifying Experimental Algorithmics". It is a toolbox to manage, launch, monitor and evaluate your experiments on algorithms (e.g. benchmarking). The goal is to automate various repetitive tasks that occur whenever such experiments need to be executed.
simexpal consists of both a command line (CLI) utility and a Python package. You can start using simexpal by installing it via pip or conda, e.g. "pip install simexpal" or "conda install simexpal". The documentation and examples for usage can be found on Read the Docs: https://simexpal.readthedocs.io/
The main page for development is on Github: https://github.com/hu-macsy/simexpal Please feel encouraged to open Issues to provide feedback on documentation, or to report any bugs you encounter!
New team member: Msc. Florian Willich
- 01.07.23: We welcome Florian Willich as a new PhD student! His professional background includes distributed graph datastructure. Check out the team website for more infos.

- 07.06.23: Our paperMore Recent Advances in (Hyper)Graph Partitioning by Ü. Çatalyürek, K. Devine, M. Fonseca Faraj, L. Gottesbüren, T. Heuer, H. Meyerhenke, P. Sanders, S. Schlag, C. Schulz, D. Seemaier and D. Wagner has been published in ACM Computing Surveys.
Three papers accepted (SBAC-PAD and ASONAM)
- 11.09.22: This was a very successful weekend for the MACSy group with three papers being accepted at the conferences SBAC-PAD (parallel/distributed computing) and ASONAM (network science):
- At SBAC-PAD: "An MPI-Parallel Algorithm for Static and Dynamic Top-k Harmonic Centrality" by van der Grinten, Custers (TU Delft), Le Thanh and Meyerhenke
- At ASONAM: "Faster Greedy Optimization of Resistance-based Graph Robustness" by Predari, Kooij (TU Delft) and Meyerhenke
- At ASONAM: "Network Sparsification via Degree- and Subgraph-based Edge Sampling" by Su, Kurths (PIK Potsdam) and Meyerhenke
The papers will soon be available on arXiv and (somewhat later) in the respective conference proceedings.
