A logical specification language for ontologies in the system “Binary Model of Knowledge”

Abstract

We describe the language LLS-1 for logical specifying ontologies written in “Binary Model of Knowledge” (BMK). BMK is the system intended for specifying heavy-weight ontologies by means of conceptual-type languages. The language LLS-1 has a user-friendly syntax in style of the Manchester syntax for OWL. We also determine a deduction method for LLS-1.
