Abstract. While there has been a great deal of work on the development of reasoning algorithms for expressive description logics, in most cases only Tbox reasoning is considered. I...
Abstract. Model-based most specific concepts are a non-standard reasoning service in Description Logics. They have turned out to be useful in knowledge base completion for ontologi...
In this paper, we investigate the use of Description Logic (DL) for representing Product Behavioral constraints in Computer Aided Design (CAD) Systems. In an integrated design app...
This paper has two goals. First, we develop frameworks for logical systems which are able to re ect not only nonmonotonic patterns of reasoning, but also paraconsistent reasoning....
In this paper we consider supernormal defaults [Poo88] with a strict partial order defining their priorities [Bre91]. We investigate their relation to minimal or preferential ent...
