  • KurzfassungAbstract
    In this chapter, we are concerned with the relationship between description logics and other formalisms, regardless of whether they were designed for knowledge representation issues or not. Obviously, due to the lack of space, we cannot compare each representational formalism with DLs, thus we concentrated on those that either (1) had or have a strong influence on DLs (e.g., modal logics), (2) are closely related to description logics for historical reasons (e.g., semantic networks and structured inheritance networks), (3) have similar expressive power (e.g., semantic data models).
