We are often faced with different experts of an area whose opinions may differ on a particular subject (a common example is medical consultation). These differences have to be "resolved" in order to reach a consensus and act. This consensus may require each participant to modify some of their opinions/beliefs. In the 80s, the AGM model of belief revision offered a conceptual framework for…

Nowadays, ontologies described in languages such as RDF and OWL are widely used for representing the conceptualization of a domain that can be processed by computers. Reflecting their application, ontologies may need to be updated frequently. The large amount of unstructured information encoded in ontologies makes this already complicated task even harder. We study how ontology modularisa…

According to the W3C, ontologies in OWL (or OWL 2) are the standard way to share information in the Semantic Web. Among the many views of ontologies, we adopt here the definition of ontologies as documents describing the conceptualization of a domain, in a computer-processable language. Specifically, we address the problem of repairing and evolving large-scale ontologies efficiently. Sinc…
