Review Comment:
This manuscript was submitted as 'full paper' and should be reviewed along the usual dimensions for research contributions which include (1) originality, (2) significance of the results, and (3) quality of writing.
I thank the authors for their responses. Nevertheless, they did not precisely address all my questions.
a) Although the authors have observed an “insignificant” difference between the results produced by the different methods used to measure the reported time, there is an error in measurements. This issue needs to be explicitly mentioned in the paper.
b) There is a misunderstanding and misleading idea about the query processing capability of producing results incrementally. In the context of adaptive query execution engines, this capability does not mean that there is an API that implements the “iterator model” and is able to output one answer when the getNext method is invoked. Contrary, the capability of producing results incrementally means that the engine outputs the results as soon as they become available from non-blocking operators. The authors should include the reference where is stated that Sesame does implement non-blocking operators. Additionally, it is required an explanation of why FedX, LHD, and DAW implement N.B.O. and A.Q.P while others are not adaptive (statement in Page 7: “Ten of the considered systems support adaptive query processing with DHT, SPLENDID, QWIDVD, and DARQ being the only systems that do not support this paradigm.”).
c) There are still typos in the paper that need to be fixed. Some of them:

Consistently use British or American English. Do not mix both, e.g., behaviour versus behavior. Similarly, consistently follow the punctuation rules for the numbers, e.g., 10693 versus 3,670.9.
