Definitions |
Event is close in meaning to BFO's 'process boundary', and to DOLCE's 'achievement'. Note that BFO's 'process boundary' is a sibling class to 'process', even though the definition annotation states it to be a "temporal part of a process". It's not obvious why the event/process boundary shouldn't have the same participants as the parent activity/process. An activity that occurs at one or more specific points in time. An 'event' doesn't need to be temporally connected. For example, several instances of switching on a heater over a week may be represented by a single 'event' individual; it will occupy a non-singular 'instant region'. The details of a singular event part may be modelled by relating the event to 'instant' individuals. |
