A Preliminary Report

Part of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science book series (LNAI,volume 2366)

Abstract

We argue for a semantical modification of the language DLP<. We show by examples that the current DLP< representation in some cases does not provide intuitive answers, in particular when applied to inheritance reasoning. We present and discuss an initial modification of DLP< that yields the expected answers in some examples that we consider significant
