** OWL 2 Implementation report Edward Thomas (University of Aberdeen) Stuart Taylor (University of Aberdeen) Jeff Pan (University of Aberdeen) * System Quill http://kt.abdn.ac.uk/wiki/Quill The core of Quill is an OWL2-QL query engine. Quill can operate over OWL2-QL ontologies or OWL2-DL ontologies which can be stored using semantic approximation to OWL2-QL. It supports very large ontologies, and offers exceptional performance querying deep concept and role hierarchies. * Profile OWL-2 QL, OWL-2 DL (using semantic approximation to OWL2-QL) Quill is designed to support high performance querying over very large repositories, using a highly customised database schema based on DL-Lite. QL was therefore an ideal choice as it works with the existing framework which Quill is based on. * Semantics Direct semantics. Annotation properties are allowed in user queries as well. * Conformance This implementation supports the majority of OWL2-QL, currently unimplemented is support for reasoning different individuals based on class disjointness. This is due to be implemented shortly. * At risk features We do not provide support for these features and have no plans to do so currently. * Ready to proceed to Recommendation? We see no problems with proceeding to Recommendation. The University of Aberdeen is a charity registered in Scotland, No SC013683.
