We study the problem of deciding whether two ontologies are inseparable w.r.t. a signature Σ, i.e., whether they have the same consequences in the signature Σ. A special case is...
We address the problem of answering conjunctive queries over knowledge bases, specified by sets of first-order sentences called tuple-generating dependencies (TGDs). This problem i...
With the increasing development of real applications using Semantic Web Technologies, it is necessary to provide scalable and efficient ontology querying and reasoning systems. In ...
The DL-Lite family of Description Logics has been designed with the specific goal of allowing for answering complex queries (in particular, conjunctive queries) over ontologies w...
Abstract. The coupling of description logic reasoning systems with other reasoning formalisms (possibly over the Web) is becoming an important research issue and calls for advanced...
