| contents | Propagation models are essential for modeling and simulating dynamic processes such as epidemics and information diffusion. However, existing tools struggle to scale to large-scale graphs that emerge across social networks, epidemic networks and so on, due to limited algorithmic efficiency, weak scalability, and high communication overhead. We present FS_GPlib, a unified library that enables efficient, high-fidelity propagation modeling on Web-scale graphs. FS_GPlib introduces a dual-acceleration framework: it combines micro-level synchronous message-passing updates with macro-level batched Monte Carlo simulation, leveraging high-dimensional tensor operations for parallel execution. To further enhance scalability, it supports distributed simulation via a novel target-node-based graph partitioning strategy that minimizes communication overhead while maintaining load balance. Theoretically, we show that under ideal assumptions, the runtime of simulations converges approximately to a constant. Extensive experiments demonstrate up to 35,000 times speedup over standard libraries such as NDlib and execution of a full Monte Carlo simulation on a Web-scale (billion-edge) graph in 11 seconds while maintaining high simulation fidelity. FS_GPlib supports 29 propagation models-including epidemic and opinion dynamics and dynamic network models-and offers a lightweight Python API compatible with mainstream data science ecosystems. By addressing the unique challenges of modeling diffusion and cascades on the Web, FS_GPlib provides a scalable, extensible, and theoretically grounded solution for large-scale propagation analysis in epidemiology, social media analysis, and online network dynamics.
