G-CORE: A Core for Future Graph Query Languages
Summary: G-CORE introduces a composable graph query language where graphs are input and output, enabling end-to-end graph workflows. Paths are first-class citizens, balancing expressive path queries with tractable evaluation; a cross-industry academic effort to shape future graph DBMS. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
