This lecture covers the concept of link indexing, focusing on adjacency lists, properties like locality and similarity, and techniques to exploit them. It discusses gap encoding, varying length encoding, copying data from similar lists, and representing adjacency lists efficiently. The instructor also presents challenges in representing URLs in a web graph and ways to optimize main memory storage.
