| Definitions |
The class Dependent is closely related to "specifically dependent continuant" in BFO (BFO_0000020). An entity that is an inherent quality or realizable potential of an object. There is no direct analogue to 'dependent' entities in ISO 15926-2:2003. However, ISO 15926-2:2003 'property' and 'functional_physical_object' largely serve the same purpose as, respectively, 'quality' and 'potential'. |

| primitive rationale |
To provide necessary and sufficient conditions is beyond scope of IDO. Note that the BFO analogue, 'specifically dependent continuant', is defined in terms of the primitive relation 'specifically depends on' (s-depends on), which is not included in IDO. |
| scope note |
Any 'object' will be the bearer of various 'dependent' entities, but any 'temporal' entity has only an indirect relationship to 'dependent's. This is in line with BFO, but also a common source of confusion. A common need is to relate a measure based on a 'physical quantity' to an 'activity', like average speed to a transport activity; this may not be implemented as an "average speed" dependent entity of the transport. For a suitable representation pattern, see the class 'activity profile' and related resources. |
