Scalable SPARQL Querying of Large RDF Graphs

Summary: Scalable SPARQL querying for large RDF graphs via locality-aware multi-node partitioning; up to 1000× more efficient than distributed systems. Leverages single-node RDF stores, partitioning for locality, and query fragmentation matched to the partitioning. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
