Parallelizing Datalog Programs by Generalized Pivoting
Summary: Parallelizes bottom-up Datalog by identifying decomposable programs that allow partitioned, communication- and synchronization-free fixpoint evaluation. Introduces generalized pivoting as a sufficient condition (and necessary for complete decomposability) and defines completely decomposable programs. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
