Description

It would be useful to have date time arithmetic implemented in Halyard. SPARQL 1.1 supports it only for numeric data types, see XPath arithmetic. More details can be found in w3c/sparql-12#32 and w3c/sparql-12#55. The implementation can use the tests here.

Research direction

Start with the SPARQL 1.1 Operator Mapping and the linked w3c/sparql-12 discussions to define the supported date-time operations. Use the xsd_datetime_duration/tests/xsd_functions tests as the behavioral reference. Done means Halyard implements the requested SPARQL date-time arithmetic and passes the relevant tests.
