Hi, I would add two arguments to the motivation section of Raphael's document "Implementing OWL in Datalog": Learning: It is important to offer a paradigm that is not too far away from paradigms people are already familiar with, e.g. UML, in general object oriented concepts. We have to be able to reach these kinds of persons in order to achieve impact in the commercial world. Application Interoperability: Interoperability between applications can be better achieved in case you can make the statement: "Application is OWL LITE compatible". Then you know immediately if two applications rely on the same OWL level. Otherwise you have to check the used primitives one-by-one. Regards RudiReceived on Sunday, 6 October 2002 05:27:09 GMT
