Incremental graph pattern matching by Rete networks can be used in many industrial, model-driven development and network analysis scenarios including rule-based model transformation, on-the-fly consistency validation, or motif recognition. The runtime performance of such an incremental pattern matcher depends on the topology of the Rete network, which is built at compile time. In this paper, we propose a new, dynamic programming based algorithm to produce a high quality network topology according to a customizable cost function and a user-defined quantitative optimization target. Additionally, the Rete network construction algorithm is evaluated by using runtime measurements.
