In Computer Science, a TBox is a "terminological component"—a conceptualization associated with a set of facts, known as an ABox.^[1]

The terms ABox and TBox are used to describe two different types of statements in ontologies. TBox statements describe a conceptualization, a set of concepts and properties for these concepts. ABox are TBox-compliant statements about individuals belonging to those concepts. For instance, a specific tree is an individual for the concept of "Tree", while it can be stated that trees as a concept are material beings that have to be positioned on some location it is possible to state the specific location that a tree takes at some specific time.

Together ABox and TBox statements make up a knowledge base. A TBox is a set of definitions and specializations.

A definition is an equality with an atomic concept on the left hand, for example: a bachelor is a student who is undergraduate.
A specialization is an inclusion with an atomic concept on the left hand, for example: the set of students is a subset of the people who are studying.

TBOX

TBOX is a mutli-platform c library for unix, windows, mac, ios, android, etc.

It includes asio, stream, network, container, algorithm, object, memory, database, string, charset, math, libc, libm, utils and other library modules.

The stream io library

supports file, data, http and socket source

supports the stream filter for gzip charset and ..

implements the multi-stream transfer using asio

The asynchronous io library

supports reactor and proactor mode

using epoll, poll, select, kqueue and iocp os system api

The database library

supports mysql and sqlite3 database and enumerates data using the iterator mode

The xml parser library

supports DOM and SAX mode and supports xpath.

The serialization and deserialization library.

supports xml, json, bplist, xplist, binary formats

The memory library

implements some memory pools for optimizating memory.

supports fast memory error detecting. it can detect the following types of bugs for the debug mode:

# out-of-bounds accesses to heap and globals
