“OWL 1.1”: small fragments (cont.)

• There are a number of proposals, papers, prototypes (and implementations!). Eg:

• • EL++, DLP: all DL dialects (e.g., EL++ is already in use by the health care community for medical ontologies)
  • pD*, OWLPrime: OWL Full dialects, that can be implemented with rule engines on top of, say, database engines

• It may be possible to create a (or more) dialect that may have both a DL and an OWL Full semantics (eg, OWLPrime~DLP)

• The Working Group will have to settle on the final list and structure
