Scalable SPARQL Querying of Large RDF Graphs

Summary: A distributed RDF system combining state-of-the-art single-node stores with locality-aware partitioning. Decomposes SPARQL into partition-aligned fragments, achieving up to three orders of magnitude better performance than prior multi-node RDF systems. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
