In this paper we consider the most common ABox reasoning services for the description logic $\dlssx$ ($\shdlssx$, for short) and prove their decidability via a reduction to the satisfiability problem for the set-theoretic fragment \flqsr. $\shdlssx$ is a very expressive description logic admitting various concept and role constructs, datatypes, and it allows one to represent rule based languages such as SWRL. Decidability results are achieved by defining a generalized version of the… Expand

Conjunctive Query Answering via a Fragment of Set Theory
• Computer Science, Mathematics
• ICTCS
• 2016
The CQA problem for $\shdlssx$ is solved through a decision procedure for the satisfiability problem of $\flqsr$ and a space based procedure is defined for the same problem, more suitable for implementation purposes, and its computational complexity is analyzed. Expand

An algorithm for combined Tbox and Abox reasoning in the $$\mathcal{SHIQ}$$ description logic is presented, of particular interest as it can be used to decide the problem of (database) conjunctive query containment w.r.t. a schema. Expand
