introduces lot of interesting features. Here is an example:

<p>The above differences depend on the semantic supported by the specific
reasoner and from the implementation, which limit the power of the system in
favour of a better efficiency (is the case of the <tt>/owlmini</tt>
implementation of Jena, more efficient then the respective <tt>/owl</tt>). If
you need to work with RDFS semantic, and don't need OWL for your inferences,
just use the RDFS one.</p>
