Description logics reasoning in web-based education environments

Abstract

The paper proposes some applications of description logic reasoning techniques in web-based education environments. Current solutions are web oriented but without applying ontology paradigm and do not use full power of semantic web and description logics reasoning techniques which are more useful than case base reasoning. We propose which description logic reasoning technique can be applied in some segments of web-based education systems. How to implement these techniques is not topic of the paper.
