  This paper investigates the feasibility of automated reasoning over temporal
DL-Lite (TDL-Lite) knowledge bases (KBs). We test the usage of off-the-shelf
LTL reasoners to check satisfiability of TDL-Lite KBs. In particular, we test
the robustness and the scalability of reasoners when dealing with TDL-Lite
TBoxes paired with a temporal ABox. We conduct various experiments to analyse
the performance of different reasoners by randomly generating TDL-Lite KBs and
then measuring the running time and the size of the translations. Furthermore,
in an effort to make the usage of TDL-Lite KBs a reality, we present a fully
fledged tool with a graphical interface to design them. Our interface is based
on conceptual modelling principles and it is integrated with our translation
tool and a temporal reasoner.
