OWL-DLEdit

Let us begin with a focus on our running example: the Tracking Management System. Some of the key terms we use are related to containers and materials. Here are some containment laws:

1. The contents of any container must be known.
2. Crates contain only packages.
3. Packages contain only raw material.
4. Liners contain only packages.
5. Drums contain only pucks and liners.
6. Pucks contain only one liner of non-liquor material.
