Note on OWL layers
-
OWL Layers were defined to reflect compromises:
-
- expressibility vs. implementability
-
Some application just need to express and interchange terms
(with possible scruffiness): OWL Full is fine
-
- they may build application-specific reasoning instead of using
a general one
-
Some applications need rigor; then OWL DL/Lite might be the
good choice
-
Future OWL versions may define further subsets that are
simpler, easier to implement and still have enough
functionality
-
- referred to as “tractable fragments”
