    The Web of Data is assisting to a growth of interest with respect to the open challenge of representing and reasoning in an automated way over licenses and copyright. In this paper, we deal with the problem of checking the compatibility of a set of licenses associated to a single query result returned on the Web of Data, and subsequently compose them into a so called composite license. More precisely, we analyze two composition heuristics, AND-composition and OR-composition, showing how they can be used to combine the deontic components specified by the licenses, i.e., permissions, obligations, and prohibitions, and which are the most suitable combinations depending on the starting licenses. Such heuristics are evaluated using the SPINdle logic reasoner.

    Emergency management is by its nature, and in some jurisdictions by its definition, an activity that requires a concerted effort by a number of governmental and non-governmental agencies. There is a growing appreciation that collaboration between these parties is best served through the use of interoperable standards for message formats for purposes such as alerting and resource exchange. However, it is also important to realize that, although much advantage can be drawn from standardizing certain aspects of ...

    Dung-like argumentation framework ASPIC and Defeasible Logic (DL) are both well-studied rule-based formalisms for defeasible reasoning.We compare the two frameworks and establish a linkage between an instantiation of ASPIC and a DL variant, which leads to a better understanding and cross-fertilization – in particular our work sheds light on features such as ambiguity propagating/blocking, team defeat and strict rules for argumentation, while emphasizing the argumentation-theoretic
