We develop a formal framework for modular ontologies by analysing four notions of conservative extensions and their applications in refining, re-using, merging, and segmenting ont...

Description logics have been designed and studied in a modular way. This has allowed a methodic approach to complexity evaluation. We present a way to preserve this modularity in ...
In this paper we formalise compilation of the conjunctive bodies of a restricted class of Horn rules into updates on terminologies. This involves a pre-processing of the graphs re...
We describe asasp, a symbolic reachability procedure for the analysis of administrative access control policies. The tool represents access policies and their administrative action...

We propose a new family of probabilistic description logics (DLs) that, in contrast to most existing approaches, are derived in a principled way from Halpern’s probabilistic fi...
