Large analytic applications on road networks including simulations, logistics, location-based advertisement, and transportation planning require shortest distance/time methods that provide high throughput (i.e., distance/time computations per second). Our previous work discussed how to process graph distance computations in a PostgreSQL database on a large road network, e.g., 60K distance computations per second per machine, how to "scale out" by using a Spark cluster to achieve 73.8K distance computations per sec…
