Questions for From SPARQL to Rules Ankesh

Question is for the Presentation: Questions for From SPARQL to Rules
Question is asked by: Ankesh Khandelwal
The Question is: In section 5.3- SPARQL as a Rules Language- I am able to see how we could use the translation to datalog under ASP semantics as a rule language, but am having some difficulty in seeing SPARQL itself as a rule language. I can think of a rule base in SPARQL as a set of rules that have a graph pattern as their body and a construct statement in the head. Can you elaborate on what would be increase in complexity of such a language- especially when some kind of rule ordering would have to taken into account, and rules (therefore pattern matching) may have to be applied more than once?
