Frame systems—the ancestors of Description Logics—supported a form of defeasible inheritance and overriding.

This talk gives an overview of the nonmonotonic DLs introduced so far, and illustrates the many ...

This minireview highlights recent advances in the study of human populations, animal models and synergistic efforts as described by De Luca and colleagues in BMC Genetics, which are beginning to harvest low-hanging fruit in the search for obesity genes.

It is capable of producing equally good results in database merging and routing...
