Abstract. We show that the description logic SOQ with number restrictions on transitive roles is decidable by a terminating tableau calculus. The language decided by the calculus i...
The evolution of Description Logics (DLs) and Propositional Dynamic Logics produced a hierar chy of decidable logics with multiple maximal el ements. It would be desirable to ...
Abstract. This paper presents a tableau approach for deciding description logics outside the scope of OWL DL and current state-of-the-art tableau-based description logic systems. I...
This paper investigates a Description Logic, namely SHI+, which extends SHI by adding transitive closure of roles. The resulting logic SHI+ allows transitive closure of roles to oc...
We study the data complexity of instance checking and conjunctive query answering in the EL family of description logics, with a particular emphasis on the boundary of tractability...
