Description Logics for the Semantic Web

  • KurzfassungAbstract
    The vision of a Semantic Web has recently drawn considerable attention, both from academia and industry. Description Logics are often named as one of the tools that can support the Semantic Web and thus help to make this vision reality. In this paper, we try to sketch what Description Logics are and what they can do for the Semantic Web. It turns out that Descriptions Logics are very useful for defining ontologies, which provide the Semantic Web with a common understanding of the basic semantic concepts used to annotate Web pages. We also argue that, without the last decade of basic research in this area, Description Logics could not play such an important role in this domain.
