An Algebraic Formulation of Temporal Knowledge for Reasoning about Recurring Events
We formulate an algebra of binary temporal relations between events the number of occurrences of which is unknown, but which are known to recur in time. Ontologically, we view the...

An Argumentation-Based Approach to Handling Inconsistencies in DL-Lite
As a tractable description logic, DL-Lite provides a good compromise between expressive power and computational complexity of inference. It is therefore important to study ways of ...
