Aim of project
The aim of the dissertation is to develop algorithms for distributed reasoning with description logics extended with default rules. A model of a multi-agent system will be designed, which takes advantage of DDLD (Distributed Description Logic with Defaults). A prototype system will be implemented in order to confirm the correctness and efficiency of the proposed solutions. Experiments will be conducted using the prototype system.

Expected results
The results of this work will include a multi-agent system prototype implementing reasoning based on distributed description logic with defaults. As a result, research papers will be published and a PhD dissertation will be created.
