Interface DirectReasoning

All Superinterfaces:

ARTNodeFactory, BaseRDFTripleModel, PrefixMapping, RDFModel, RDFSerializer, SPARQLQueryModel, TripleQueryModel

public interface DirectReasoning
extends RDFModel

an interface related to standard methods for retrieving transitive closure of rdf:type, rdfs:subClassOf and rdfs:subPropertyOf predicates Models implementing this interface are assumed to have some kind of reasoner available which at least supports these methods
