Abstract
We propose an approach to scalable reasoning on description logic ontologies that is based on MapReduce. Our work is inspired by previous work that provided fast materialization of RDFS ontologies and proposed MapReduce for more expressive logics. We explain challenges imposed by higher expressivity that were not addressed before and describe how they can be solved.
