Foundations of Semantic Web Databases
Summary: Formalizes foundational semantics for RDF/RDFS (reification, typing, inheritance, anonymous nodes) and analyzes decidability/complexity of entailment and redundancy. Proposes a well-defined RDF query language and studies complexity of evaluation, containment, and answer simplification. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
