OFL: A Functional Execution Model for Object Query Languages

Summary: Functional paradigm for querying abstract object collections; introduces OFL and a graph-traversal execution model. Hybrid set-oriented and pipelined traversals with memoization; recursive object algebra enabling OQL-like compilation. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
