Graph Thinking with AI: Algorithms That Power Real Systems

Tue, April 21 at 4:30 PM - 5:30 PM GMT+5:30BackEndArchitectureDeepTech

Graphs underpin many real-world systems, from workflow orchestration and build pipelines to data processing and microservice dependencies. This session connects core graph algorithms such as BFS, DFS, topological sort, shortest paths, and cycle detection to practical engineering use cases. It demonstrates how these concepts apply to systems like Airflow DAGs, Bazel builds, Spark pipelines, and Jaeger tracing.

The talk also shows how AI tools and graph libraries can accelerate development workflows. Using tools such as ChatGPT, Graphviz, NetworkX, and D3, developers can generate adjacency structures, visualise dependencies, and validate algorithms quickly. Through examples and a live demonstration, the session illustrates how to move from algorithmic understanding to practical system design, helping engineers apply graph thinking in production environments.

What You Will Learn

  • How to apply BFS, DFS, topological sort, and shortest path algorithms in real systems
  • How graph concepts map to workflows, dependency graphs, and distributed architectures
  • How to use AI tools and graph libraries to generate, visualise, and validate graph structures

Who Should Attend

  • Software developers
  • Backend engineers
  • Software and system architects
  • Platform engineers
  • Engineers preparing for system design interviews or working on distributed systems
