    The design of Semantic Web markup languages, such as RDF, RDFS, and OWL, has been influenced by many different concepts, such as semantic structures and frame representations, object-oriented approaches, Description Logic, and first-order logic. Currently a Semantic Web ontology represented in these different languages is processed and manipulated differently by various approaches; however, in this paper we propose a single framework using meta-logic which can process the ontology in a uniform manner. Meta-logic allows us to reason with statements about description of classes, properties, instances, and their relationships expressed in RDF, RDFS, and OWL. This is accomplished by: initially an ontology, represented in combined RDF, RDFS, and OWL languages, is transformed to meta-logical statements representing definitions of classes and properties, relationships between classes and properties, and relationships between instances, etc.; later these statements are reasoned by a meta-interpreter which provides a query answering mechanism to infer meta and context information from the Semantic Web ontology. © 2006 IEEE.
