The paper presents a novel approach to design and development of a modularized knowledge base. It is assumed that the knowledge base consists of a terminology (axioms) and a world description (assertions), both formulated in a Description Logics (DL) dialect. The approach is oriented towards decomposition of a knowledge base into logical components called contexts and further into semantic components called conglomerates. Both notions were elaborated separately elsewhere. The paper shows how contexts and conglomerates concepts can work in harmony to create a maintainable knowledge base. An architecture of a system that conforms to this approach, which additionally uses a query language called KQL (Knowledge Query Language), is presented. The approach is intended to be used to build a prototypical system that aims at integrating knowledge on cultural heritage coming from digital libraries, including user-defined libraries. The thorough discussion of related work is also given.
