Abstract. This paper proposes a diagnosis algorithm for locating a certain kind of errors in logic programs: variable binding errors that result act symptoms during compile-time ch...
In description logics (DLs), concrete domains are used for defining concepts based on concrete qualities of their instances such as the weight, age, duration, and spatial extensio...
The goal of producing a general purpose, semantically motivated, and computationally tractable deductive reasoning service remains surprisingly elusive. By and large, approaches t...

Modularity is a key requirement for large ontologies in order to achieve re-use, maintainability, and evolution. Mechanisms for ‘normalisation’ to achieve analogous aims are s...
Matching of concepts with variables (concept patterns) is a relatively new operation that has been introduced in the context of concept description languages (description logics),...
