Unlike existing approaches, preprocessing and queries are practical on a wide variety of inputs, such as social, communication, sensor, and road networks. We achieve this by providing a unified approach based on the concept of 2-hop labels, improving upon existing methods. In particular, we introduce a fast sampling-based algorithm to order vertices by importance, as well as effective compression techniques.}, publisher = {Microsoft Technical Report}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/robust-exact-distance-queries-on-massive-networks/}, number = {MSR-TR-2014-12}, }
