Parallel materialisation of datalog programs in centralised, main-memory RDF systems by Motik, B, Nenov, Y, Piro, R, Horrocks, I, Olteanu, D

“…We present a novel approach to parallel materialisation (i.e., fixpoint computation) of datalog programs in centralised, main-memory, multi-core RDF systems. Our approach comprises an algorithm that evenly distributes the workload to cores, and an RDF indexing data structure that supports efficient, 'mostly' lock-free parallel updates. …”
