ABox Reasoning in large scale description logic (DL) knowledge bases, e.g. ontologies, is important for the success of many semantic-enriched systems. Performance of existing appro...
Abstract. Despite of their advertisement as task independent representations, the reuse of ontologies in different contexts is difficult. An explanation for this is that when devel...
—With the increasing development of real applications using Semantic Web Technologies, it is necessary to provide scalable and efficient ontology querying and reasoning systems....
Environmental databases store a wide variety of data from heterogeneous sources which are described with domain-specific terminologies and refer to distinct locations. In order to ...
Scalable query answering over Description Logic (DL) based ontologies plays an important role for the success of the Semantic Web. Towards tackling the scalability problem, we prop...
