		+	== Description ==
		+	Schema reengineering patterns are rules for transforming, e.g. a non-OWL DL
		+	metamodel into an OWL DL ontology. For example, consider the use of SKOS
		+	for Knowledge Organization Systems (KOS) reengineering to a knowledge
		+	base (an OWL ABox), based-on the SKOS TBox. Transformation Logical OPs
		+	are a kind of schema reengineering patterns. In principle, all modeling problems can be represented as higher-order logical expressions, and if we have to
		+	represent them e.g. in OWL DL, we implicitly apply a schema reengineering
		+	pattern in order to stay within the expressivity of OWL DL. However, we also
		+	(pragmatically) distinguish between transformation and schema reengineering
		+	patterns because of the di�fferent intention of the designer. In the �first case,
		+	the designer wants to directly represent a modeling solution in a certain representation formalism, e.g. OWL DL, while in the second case the designer
		+	wants to reengineer, e.g. an existing non-OWL DL model into an OWL DL
		+	ontology.
