  • KurzfassungAbstract
    Recently, we have introduced ontologized programs as a formalism to link description logic ontologies with programs specified in the guarded command language, the de-facto standard input formalism for probabilistic model checking tools such as Prism, to allow for an ontology-mediated verification of stochastic systems. Central to our approach is a complete separation of the two formalisms involved: guarded command language to describe the dynamics of the stochastic system and description logics are used to model background knowledge about the system in an ontology. In ontologized programs, these two languages are loosely coupled by an interface that mediates between these two worlds. Under the original semantics defined for ontologized programs, a program may enter a state that is inconsistent with the ontology, which limits the capabilities of the description logic component. We approach this issue in different ways by introducing consistency notions, and discuss two alternative semantics for ontologized programs. Furthermore, we present complexity results for checking whether a program is consistent under the different semantics.
