View Selection in Semantic Web Databases

Summary: View selection for Semantic Web DBs with RDF data and implicit inference, balancing query cost, storage, and maintenance. Extends relational methods to RDF, adding RDF-aware view selection and reformulation to control combinatorial explosion, with scalable experiments. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
