This is a pre-release repository containing 10 graph analytic benchmarks. An in-built synthetic graph generater can be included by statically configuring certain benchmarks. These benchmarks can run on real multicore machines as well as the Graphite Multicore Simulator.

1. Linux (Tested on Ubuntu 14.04)
2. g++ 4.6 (Tested with g++ 4.7)
3. The pthread Library

1. Ubiquitous graph based search, planning, and clustering algorithms
2. Benchmarks use adjacency list representation for input graphs
3. Most benchmarks scale to 256 threads, some scale upto 1024 threads as well
4. Easy to compile and use
5. The input graphs are generic, i.e., the benchmarks do not assume any pre-processing or optimizations, such as graph compression and vertex/edge reordering
