Past and Future of DL-Lite
We design minimal temporal description logics that are capable of expressing various aspects of temporal conceptual data models and investigate their computational complexity. We ...

Essential and Mandatory Part-Whole Relations in Conceptual Data Models
A recurring problem in conceptual modelling and ontology development is the representation of part-whole relations, with a requirement to be able to distinguish between essential a...

Complexity of Reasoning over Temporal Data Models
Abstract. We investigate the computational complexity of reasoning over temporal extensions of conceptual data models. The temporal conceptual models we analyse include the standar...

Modeling the Evolution of Objects in Temporal Information Systems
This paper presents a semantic foundation of temporal conceptual models used to design temporal information systems. We consider a modeling language able to express both timestampi...

A Description Logic of Change
We combine the modal logic S5 with the description logic (DL) ALCQI. In this way, we obtain a multi-dimensional DL, S5ALCQI, whose purpose is reasoning about change. S5ALCQI is ca...
