@inproceedings{ Title = {Description Logic Reasoning with Decision Diagrams: Compiling SHIQ to Disjunctive Datalog}, Booktitle = {7th International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC2008)}, Year = {2008}, Month = {October}, Abstract = {We propose a novel method for reasoning in the description logic SHIQ. After a satisfiability preserving transformation from SHIQ to the description logic ALCIb, the obtained ALCIb Tbox T is converted into an ordered binary decision diagram (OBDD) which represents a canonical model for T. This OBDD is turned into a disjunctive datalog program that can be used for Abox reasoning. The algorithm is worst-case optimal w.r.t. data complexity, and admits easy extensions with DL-safe rules and ground conjunctive queries.}, Url = {http://data.semanticweb.org/conference/iswc/2008/paper/research/273} }
