Modularisation of domain ontologies implemented in description logics and related formalisms including OWL
Modularity is a key requirement for large ontologies in order to achieve re-use, maintainability, and evolution. Mechanisms for ‘normalisation’ to achieve analogous aims are s...

Towards ontologies for formalizing modularization and communication in large software systems
Large software systems are modularized in order to improve manageability. The parts of the software system communicate in order to achieve the desired functionality. To better und...

Checking DL-Lite Modularity with QBF Solvers
We show how the reasoning tasks of checking various versions of conservativity for the description logic DL-Litebool can be reduced to satisfiability of quantified Boolean formulas...

PR-OWL: A Framework for Probabilistic Ontologies
Abstract. Across a wide range of domains, there is an urgent need for a wellfounded approach to incorporating uncertain and incomplete knowledge into formal domain ontologies. Alth...
