其他摘要：Description logics (DL) form a well-known family of knowledge representation languages. One of its main applications is on the Semantic Web as a reasoning framework in the form of the Ontology Web Language (OWL). In this paper, we propose a cut-free tree hypersequent calculus for terminological reasoning in the Description Logic ALC. We show the calculus is sound and complete. Also, an implementation is provided together with a complexity analysis. In addition, we also describe a cut-free sequent calculus for the description logic ALC with reflexive and transitive roles. Soundness and completeness are proven, and a complexity analysis and an implementation are also provided.
