【 摘 要 】

When modeling an ontology, one very often wants to add new information and keep the resulting ontology consistent. Belief Revision deals with the problem of consistently adding new formulas to a knowledge base. In this paper, we present some steps towards applying belief revision methods to ontologies based on description logics. We depart from the well known AGM-paradigm and show how it can be adapted in order to be applied to description logics.
