Thank you Sebastian for the information >>> Sebastian Schaffert <sebastian.schaff...@gmail.com> 07.10.2014 12:59 >>> Hi Fabian,
in the current snapshot (i.e. 3.3 not 3.2), all SPARQL queries are translated into native SQL for the underlying database. This means the order of results depends on the database system. Personally, I would not make any such assumptions, because it could also happen that someone modifies the data while paging. Greetings, Sebastian 2014-09-25 7:52 GMT+02:00 Fabian Cretton <fabian.cret...@hevs.ch>: Hi, I will implement a 'simple' paging possibility in some predefined SPARQL queries, using OFFSET/LIMIT. But now there was this discussion (in 2011) about the need or not of the ORDER BY clause: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg-comments/2011May/0017.html In my case, where queries will be predifined by administrators, it will be easy to handle an ORDER BY, but I still ask the question for performances reasons. My question is thus: Does Marmotta SPARQL queries on the SPARQL web service always return results in the same order when no ORDER BY clause is defined ? Thanks Fabian
