This release includes several enhancements and new features. (1) The RETE core of Bossam is redesigned and it shows a significant improvement. (2) A more elaborated and advanced OWL reasoner, OwlDlTrMReasoner, is added. This reasoner performs OWL reasoning based on elaborated translation and meta-rules. It covers a lot more of OWL reasoning than OwlDlTrHReasoner. Performance measures against famous ontologies and LUBM will soon be posted. (3) It’s possible to assert a rule at the head of rules. These rules, called rule-generating rules (RGR), enable writing more complex & dynamic knowledge and optimizing knowledge structure and performance.
