Abstract: We present DLDB, a knowledge base system that extends a relational database management system with additional capabilities for DAML+OIL inference. We discuss a number of ...
Abstract. Description Logics (DLs) are a family of knowledge representation formalisms mainly characterised by constructors to build complex concepts and roles from atomic ones. Ex...
Transitive propagation along properties can be modelled in various ways in the OWL description logic. Doing so allows existing description logic reasoners based on the tableaux alg...
Developing applications that make effective use of machine-readable knowledge sources as promised by the Semantic Web vision is attracting much of current research interest; this v...
