The ability of the RDF data model to link data from heterogeneous domains has led to an explosive growth of RDF data. So, evaluating SPARQL queries over large RDF data has been crucial for the semantic web community. However, due to the…

The combination of the flexibility of RDF and the expressiveness of SPARQL provides a powerful mechanism to model, integrate and query data. However, these properties also mean that it is nontrivial to write performant SPARQL queries.…
