Abstract

We investigate how inverse features can be added to a boolean complete description logic with pathfunctional dependencies in ways that avoid undecidability of the associated logical implication problem. In particular, we present two conditions that ensure the problem remains EXPTIMEcomplete. The first is syntactic in nature and limits the form that dependencies may have in argument terminologies. The second is a coherence condition on terminologies that is sufficiently weak to allow the transfer of relational and emerging objectoriented normalization techniques.
