We extend the theory about terminological default reasoning by using a logical base language that can represent spatioterminological phenomena. Based on this description logic lang...

Commitment to an ontological perspective is a primary aspect of reasoning about the physical world. For complex analytic tasks, the ability to switch between different ontologies ...
