Freshly minted PhD Philip Stutz and DDIS student Bibek Paudel successfully presented TripleRush — a paper co-authored with Ela Verman and Abraham Bernstein — at the World Wide Web Conference in Florence.

TripleRush is a highly parallelized and distributed in-memory graph database (or triple store) that performs better than its competitors. It also has the special feature of being able to run sampling queries in the form of Random Walks with Restarts.

You can find all information about TripleRush in the paper, which is available at http://www.merlin.uzh.ch/publication/show/11663
