Methods, apparatuses and storage device associated with cache and/or socket sensitive breadth-first iterative traversal of a graph by parallel threads, are described. A vertices visited array (VIS) may be employed to track graph vertices visited. VIS may be partitioned into VIS sub-arrays, taking into consideration cache sizes of LLC, to reduce likelihood of evictions. Potential boundary vertices arrays (PBV) may be employed to store potential boundary vertices for a next iteration, for vertices being visited in a current iteration. The number of PBV generated for each thread may take into consideration a number of sockets, over which the processor cores employed are distributed. The threads may be load balanced; further data locality awareness to reduce inter-socket communication may be considered, and/or lock-and-atomic free update operations may be employed.
