Abstract: Graph500 is an important and famous benchmark to evaluate data-intensive applications for supercomputers in the big data era. The graph traversal processing ability of pre-exascale system is mainly restricted to memory space and communication bandwidth, especially the utilization of memory space ultimately determines the testing graph scale, and the graph testing scale absolutely dominates the performance of Graph500. Hence, Bi-CSR (bidirectional-bitmap CSR) is proposed based on CSR (compressed sparse row) for testing Graph500 on Tianhe pre-exascale system, The Bi-CSR would reduce large-scale graph space by introducing row-bitmap and column-bitmap to compress sparse matrix storage for Graph500.The aim of row-bitmap based on CSR is mainly cutting down graph memory space, while column-bitmap based on CSR would not only further reduce memory space but also improve graph traversal by using array of VPE(vector processing element), because VPEs are optimized and equipped in Tianhe pre-exascale system, which would speedup graph traversal when making fully use of VPEs. Accordingly, Bi-CSR would greatly reduce large-scale graph space while introducing row-bitmap and column-bitmap to compress sparse matrix storage of Graph500 for Tianhe pre-exascale system. Experimental results demonstrate that Bi-CSR would reduce large-scale graph space by 70% when testing input of Graph500 is 2\+\{37\} on Tianhe pre-exascale system with 2.131E+12 TEPS (traversed edges per second).
