Abstract / Kurzbeschreibung: |
We propose a novel technique for proving the consistency of
large, complex and heterogeneous theories for which ‘standard’
automated reasoning methods are considered insufficient.
In particular, we exemplify the applicability of the
method by establishing the consistency of the foundational
ontology DOLCE, a large, first-order ontology. The approach
we advocate constructs a global model for a theory, in our
case DOLCE, built from smaller models of subtheories together
with amalgamability properties between such models.
The proof proceeds by (i) hand-crafting a so-called architectural
specification of DOLCE which reflects the way models
of the theory can be built, (ii) an automated verification of the
amalgamability conditions, and (iii) a (partially automated)
series of relative consistency proofs. |
