Abstract
A DF-ALC (Decomposing fuzzy ALC) is proposed in this paper to satisfy the need for representing and reasoning with fuzzy ontologies in the context of semantic Web. A DF-ALC is also proposed to satisfy the need for seeing the necessity of decomposing ontology into several sub-ontologies in order to optimize the fuzzy reasoning process.The main contribution of this work is to decompose the axioms of the ontology into sub-axioms according to a degree of certainty which is assigned to the fuzzy concepts and roles. It is also to define the syntax and semantics and to propose a local reasoning algorithm and a way of using gateways to infer between local TBox.
