When referencing a specific component of the Apollo-SV such as a class, object property, annotation property, or individual, use the component's Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). 2023-01-10 National Library of Medicine Identifier This identifier is the one that the National Library of Medicine uses to identify journals uniquely in PubMed. NLM ID linking ISSN International Standard Serial Number, Linking The linking ISSN is a single number assigned to all formats of a journal. The online and print versions of a journal, for example, are typically different. The linking ISSN refers to the journal regardless of format. ISSN Linking Iso Abbr ISO Abbreviations are constructed at NLM to assist NCBI in linking from GenBank to PubMed. ISO Title Abbreviation The abbreviated journal title assigned by the National Library of Medicine. Typically, it's the ISO title abbreviation without periods. NLM Title Abbreviation The date on which a URI annotated with this property was created. William R. Hogan This is the date that you created the URI that represents something, NOT the date that the thing referenced by the URI was created. For example, if you create a URI on 2014-09-24 to represent a book published on 1982-10-17, then this annotation property should have the value 2014-09-24. In other words, this annotation refers to the representation, not the represented thing. For the 1982-10-17 date, we suggest the dc:created annotation. URI creation date author list William R. Hogan an annotation property for capturing the list of authors on the publication or other document to which the entity to which the annotation is attached refers. That is, this annotation should be attached only to individuals that represent information content entities, and its values must denote the people that authored the ICE. author list <annotation> source code version control repository URL WIlliam R. Hogan This annotation is intended for annotating instances of software application, software module, ontology (artifact), etc. with a uniform resource locator that points to the source code version control repository where they are managed. Note that for OWL individuals that reference a particular version of the software or ontology, this URL should point to the place in the repository where that version is located, rather than the general main page of the repository. source code repository URL human readable synopsis A comment that summarizes the most relevant or salient features and history of the entity for human readers.

Shall be Aristotelian, formalized and normalized. Can be augmented with colloquial definitions. 2012-04-05: Barry Smith The official OBI definition, explaining the meaning of a class or property: 'Shall be Aristotelian, formalized and normalized. Can be augmented with colloquial definitions' is terrible. Can you fix to something like: A statement of necessary and sufficient conditions explaining the meaning of an expression referring to a class or property. Alan Ruttenberg Your proposed definition is a reasonable candidate, except that it is very common that necessary and sufficient conditions are not given. Mostly they are necessary, occasionally they are necessary and sufficient or just sufficient. Often they use terms that are not themselves defined and so they effectively can't be evaluated by those criteria. On the specifics of the proposed definition: We don't have definitions of 'meaning' or 'expression' or 'property'. For 'reference' in the intended sense I think we use the term 'denotation'. For 'expression', I think we you mean symbol, or identifier. For 'meaning' it differs for class and property. For class we want documentation that let's the intended reader determine whether an entity is instance of the class, or not. For property we want documentation that let's the intended reader determine, given a pair of potential relata, whether the assertion that the relation holds is true. The 'intended reader' part suggests that we also specify who, we expect, would be able to understand the definition, and also generalizes over human and computer reader to include textual and logical definition. Personally, I am more comfortable weakening definition to documentation, with instructions as to what is desirable. We also have the outstanding issue of how to aim different definitions to different audiences. A clinical audience reading chebi wants a different sort of definition documentation/definition from a chemistry trained audience, and similarly there is a need for a definition that is adequate for an ontologist to work with.

Formally: x preceded by y iff ω(y) <= α(x), where α is a function that maps a process to a start point, and ω is a function that maps a process to an end point. An example is: translation preceded_by transcription; aging preceded_by development (not however death preceded_by aging). Where derives_from links classes of continuants, preceded_by links classes of processes. Clearly, however, these two relations are not independent of each other. Thus if cells of type C1 derive_from cells of type C, then any cell division involving an instance of C1 in a given lineage is preceded_by cellular processes involving an instance of C. The assertion P preceded_by P1 tells us something about Ps in general: that is, it tells us something about what happened earlier, given what we know about what happened later. Thus it does not provide information pointing in the opposite direction, concerning instances of P1 in general; that is, that each is such as to be succeeded by some instance of P. Note that an assertion to the effect that P preceded_by P1 is rather weak; it tells us little about the relations between the underlying instances in virtue of which the preceded_by relation obtains. Typically we will be interested in stronger relations, for example in the relation immediately_preceded_by, or in relations which combine preceded_by with a condition to the effect that the corresponding instances of P and P1 share participants, or that their participants are connected by relations of derivation, or (as a first step along the road to a treatment of causality) that the one process in some way affects (for example, initiates or regulates) the other. is preceded by preceded_by http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/ro.owl http://www.obofoundry.org/ro/#OBO_REL:preceded_by preceded by precedes x precedes y if and only if the time point at which x ends is before or equivalent to the time point at which y starts.

P4 RC1 munges our GCI so remove it for now: mentions some entity equivalentTo has_part some ('generically denotes' some entity) 7/6/2009 Alan Ruttenberg: Add this relation following conversation with Jonathan Rees that N&S GCI for is_about was too strong. Really it was simply sufficient. To effect this change we introduce this relation, which is subproperty of is_about, and have previous GCI use this relation "mentions" in it's (logical) definition PERSON: Jonathan Rees Person: Alan Ruttenberg mentions Inverse of the relation 'mentions' 2022-01-28T07:20:08Z mentioned by A person's name denotes the person. A variable name in a computer program denotes some piece of memory. Lexically equivalent strings can denote different things, for instance "Alan" can denote different people. In each case of use, there is a case of the denotation relation obtaining, between "Alan" and the person that is being named. A primitive, instance-level, relation obtaining between an information content entity and some portion of reality. Denotation is what happens when someone creates an information content entity E in order to specifically refer to something. The only relation between E and the thing is that E can be used to 'pick out' the thing. This relation connects those two together. Freedictionary.com sense 3: To signify directly; refer to specifically 2009-11-10 Alan Ruttenberg. Old definition said the following to emphasize the generic nature of this relation. We no longer have 'specifically denotes', which would have been primitive, so make this relation primitive. g denotes r =def r is a portion of reality there is some c that is a concretization of g every c that is a concretization of g specifically denotes r person:Alan Ruttenberg Conversations with Barry Smith, Werner Ceusters, Bjoern Peters, Michel Dumontier, Melanie Courtot, James Malone, Bill Hogan denotes see https://github.com/information-artifact-ontology/IAO/issues/25&q=denote obsolete_materially denotes true m is a quality measurement of q at t. When q is a quality, there is a measurement process p that has specified output m, a measurement datum, that is about q 8/6/2009 Alan Ruttenberg: The strategy is to be rather specific with this relationship. There are other kinds of measurements that are not of qualities, such as those that measure time. We will add these as separate properties for the moment and see about generalizing later From the second IAO workshop [Alan Ruttenberg 8/6/2009: not completely current, though bringing in comparison is probably important] This one is the one we are struggling with at the moment. The issue is what a measurement measures. On the one hand saying that it measures the quality would include it "measuring" the bearer = referring to the bearer in the measurement. However this makes comparisons of two different things not possible. On the other hand not having it inhere in the bearer, on the face of it, breaks the audit trail. Werner suggests a solution based on "Magnitudes" a proposal for which we are awaiting details. -- From the second IAO workshop, various comments, [commented on by Alan Ruttenberg 8/6/2009] unit of measure is a quality, e.g. the length of a ruler. [We decided to hedge on what units of measure are, instead talking about measurement unit labels, which are the information content entities that are about whatever measurement units are. For IAO we need that information entity in any case. See the term measurement unit label] [Some struggling with the various subflavors of is_about. We subsequently removed the relation represents, and describes until and only when we have a better theory] a represents b means either a denotes b or a describes describe: a describes b means a is about b and a allows an inference of at least one quality of b We have had a long discussion about denotes versus describes. From the second IAO workshop: An attempt at tieing the quality to the measurement datum more carefully. a is a magnitude means a is a determinate quality particular inhering in some bearer b existing at a time t that can be represented/denoted by an information content entity e that has parts denoting a unit of measure, a number, and b. The unit of measure is an instance of the determinable quality. From the second meeting on IAO: An attempt at defining assay using Barry's "reliability" wording assay: process and has_input some material entity and has_output some information content entity and which is such that instances of this process type reliably generate outputs that describes the input. This one is the one we are struggling with at the moment. The issue is what a measurement measures. On the one hand saying that it measures the quality would include it "measuring" the bearer = referring to the bearer in the measurement. However this makes comparisons of two different things not possible. On the other hand not having it inhere in the bearer, on the face of it, breaks the audit trail.

Following we can use this relation to define a further instance-level location relation - not between a continuant and the region which it exactly occupies, but rather between one continuant and another. c is located in c1, in this sense, whenever the spatial region occupied by c is part_of the spatial region occupied by c1. Note that this relation comprehends both the relation of exact location between one continuant and another which obtains when r and r1 are identical (for example, when a portion of fluid exactly fills a cavity), as well as those sorts of inexact location relations which obtain, for example, between brain and head or between ovum and uterus Most location relations will only hold at certain times, but this is difficult to specify in OWL.

An identifier that refers to all versions of a specific simulator, such as “FRED”. We intend that it uniquely identify a simulator when combined with simulator developer. For example, the combination www.psc.edu/FRED would differentiate the FRED simulator created by a Pittsburgh organization from another “FRED” simulator maintained elsewhere. The implementation of namespace control for simulator name (i.e., making sure that they don’t use “FRED” twice) is the responsibility of simulator developer. simulator identifier A control strategy start time information item that is based on a condition that triggers the control strategy. Mathias Brochhausen A control strategy start time information item that is based on a condition that triggers the control strategy. control strategy reactive start time information true A numeral that is part of a simulation time step action specification. A number of time step units in a time step of a simulation. For example, if the time step is 6 hours, then this value is 6. numberOfUnitsOfTimeInOneSimulatorStep simulation time step value An identifier that, as part of a complete simulator identifier, refers to one specific version of a simulator software. An identifier that refers to a unique version of a simulator. Simulator version distinguishes, for example, version “2.0” from “2.0.b” simulator version identifier A time unit that is part of a simulation time step action specification. A unit of time for each time step of a simulation, such as “hours” or “days”. unitOfTimeForSimulatorTimeStep simulation time step unit The action specification that specifies the number of time steps a simulation is going to run. The number of time steps in a simulator run. For example, if run length is 10 and the time step is 6 hours, then the simulator will simulate a 60-hour period that begins at simulator time zero. runLength simulation run length A duration of the parts of an infection during which the host bears an infectious disposition in a population of hosts. Mathias Brochhausen A period when an individual of a particular species, who is infected with a particular pathogen, is able to infect susceptible organisms of a particular species. Note that the susceptible and infectious organisms can be of different species. infectiousPeriodDuration MB: In order to get the temporal occupation relations I added properties that I renamed with BFO2 URIs. infectious period duration A duration of the time interval between the host acquiring an infection and the host bearing a contagiousness disposition during the same disease course within a population of hosts. Mathias Brochhausen A period during which an organism of a particular species, who is infected with a particular pathogen, is not yet able to infect susceptible organisms of a particular species. Note that the susceptible and infected organisms can be of different species. latentPeriodDuration MB: In order to get the temporal occupation relations I added properties that I renamed with BFO2 URIs The duration of the period between when an organism becomes infected and when it becomes infectious. latent period duration Mathias Brochhausen count of simulated susceptible population Mathias Brochhausen count of simulated exposed population Mathias Brochhausen count of simulated contagious population Mathias Brochhausen count of simulated resistant population The count of (simulated organisms) in a simulated population. Mathias Brochhausen The number of simulated organisms in a simulated population. The number does not have to be an integer. MW: I know this causes problems with our set-theoretic definition. Unfortunately the compartmental models produce fractional counts at each of their time steps, including the final step. Any ideas? I’ve considered and rejected allowing individual organisms to be fractional. Perhaps if we just replace the term “cardinality” in the definition with ‘computed size’ count of simulated population An action specification comprising the number of doses and their timing for a vaccination of an individual organism against a specific infectious agent. A vaccination schedule specifies the intended timing of initial and subsequent booster doses of vaccine for an individual organism. vaccination dose schedule The fraction expressing the probability that an organism who is eligible according to a particular vaccination policy will be consented for that vaccination. The fraction of individuals in a population who are eligible according to a particular vaccination policy and will accept vaccination assuming no supply constraint. MB: This class is still awaiting its class restriction. It should be restricted as being about a population that has members that are eligible for a vaccination against the members that are eligible and consented the vaccination. There is a class "eligibility rule" in OBI (http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/OBI_0500026), but it is restricted by definition to studies. I put in an issue in the OBI issue tracker. The consenting process and its specified outcome should be done in d-acts, but needs to be done properly. MW: I still see enough similarities at the abstract level among some control measures that we might add the concepts “Control measure compliance”, “Control measure efficacy” and “control measure efficacy delay.” We could then post-coordinate particular control measures such as vaccine. It is worth noting that there are control measures such as closing schools that are not applied at the individual level. We have not represented those control measures yet. vaccination compliance The infectious disease treatment efficacy of a vaccine. The degree to which a particular vaccination reduces the probability that a vaccinated individual will have a particular vaccination preventable outcome. vaccinationEfficacies Notes: 1. Apollo-SV does not distinguish between ‘vaccine efficacy’ and ‘vaccine effectiveness.’ 2. Apollo-SV also considers the use of ‘vaccine’ in both terms a misnomer need to generate class restriction. Something like: 'is realized by' some (processual_entity and (has_participant some ('Anatomical structure' and ('is physical basis of' some 'protective resistance')) we'd also like to say that the protective resistance disposition began to exist during the process. can't recall whether we should use process or processual_entity for future BFO compatibility. vaccination efficacy A planned process involving counting numbers of facilities in a specific region. A planned process involving counting numbers of facilities in a specific region. facility survey Mathias Brochhausen Motivating use case is Synthia synthetic population data. school facility census A process that is applied to a population with the goal of preventing, or mitigating the severity of an infectious disease. A process that is applied to a population with the goal of preventing, or mitigating the severity of an infectious disease. infectious disease control strategy execution 1 Mathias Brochhausen Key motivating use case was Synthia synthetic population data. hospital patient population A simulation of a population or populations of organisms of a particular biological taxon that simulates a particular type of event or types of event that occur in a specified time interval. Mathias Brochhausen A simulated population is a set of simulated organisms. The set can be null (e.g., the set of 200 year-old H. sapiens). A simulated population can include more than one species, in which case it may be convenient to define each species as a simulated population and form the overall simulated population by set union. Similarly, it may be convenient to define sociodemographic or geographic strata within a simulated population as simulated populations and obtain the overall simulated population by set union.

Mathias Brochhausen A measurement datum that is the output of counting. count count The planned process of finding the number of elements in a finite set of objects. Mathias Brochhausen http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counting The planned process of finding the number of elements in a finite set of objects. counting a simulation that is about an organism simulation of organism A continuous parametric probability distribution that is uniform; centered around the mean, parameter μ​; and whose spread of standard deviations, parameter σ​, adheres to the empirical rule. A continuous probability distribution in which the parameter μ is the mean or expectation of the distribution and the parameter σ is its standard deviation NormalDistribution normal distribution A simulation of an infectious agent host that is not contagious and is part of a simulated population. A simulated organism in a simulated population that has acquired a particular simulated disease but is not yet able to transmit the disease to another simulated organism. simulation of exposed organism An identifier that refers to a geographical location to be used as location of a population in a simulation. Mathias Brochhausen An identifier referring to geographical location of a simulated population. Our intent is for the location identifiers to be INCITS codes. simulated population location identifier A simulation of an infectious organism host that is contagious. A simulated organism in a simulated population that has acquired a particular simulated disease and is able to transmit the disease to another simulated organism. simulation of infectious organism A simulated organism in a simulated population that is not susceptible. A simulated organism in a simulated population that is neither susceptible, exposed, nor infectious for a particular simulated disease. Note that the name for this concept, were it to be named based on its intent, would be ‘immune.’ However, in the practice domain of epidemiology this concept is traditionally termed ‘recovered.’ The problem with the traditional name is that organisms can be considered ‘recovered’ by virtue of having been vaccinated, which differs from lay usage. simulation of recovered organism A representation of a disposition realized in a represented disease course that at least part of the simulated population is represented as participating in. Mathias Brochhausen The disease being simulated. disease simulation of disease The average value of transmissions of the infectious agent from one infected organism to another, resulting in an infection. Mathias Brochhausen The number of susceptible organisms that each infected organism infects. ‘Infects’ carries the same meaning as ‘exposes’ in epidemic simulations such as SEIR simulation. ReproductionNumber reproduction number 1 Mathias Brochhausen Key motivating use case was Synthia synthetic population data. nursery school student population The fraction given to express the probability that an organism will become infected, but stay asymptomatic. The fraction of infectious individuals who do not develop symptoms during the course of their infections. asymptomatic infection fraction obsolete asymptomatic infection fraction true An action specification giving the number of doses of vaccine to be made available over a specific time period. The counts of vaccine doses that become available in a specific population location during (at the start of would be unambiguous) each simulator time step. vaccine supply schedule An action specification giving the number of vaccinations possible in a population during a specific time interval. The counts of individuals that could be vaccinated in a population location per time step unit in the absence of any vaccine supply constraints. It represents the capacity of medical system to vaccinate individuals. vaccination administration capacity The infectious disease treatment efficacy of an antiviral drug. The degree to which a particular antiviral drug reduces the probability that a treated individual will have a particular preventable outcome. Preventable outcomes include but are not limited to infection, infectiousness, symptoms, and hospitalization. AntiviralTreatmentEfficacy MB: For DL reasons the easiest way to formalize the definition was to assume only organism that are either host or not immune undergo antiviral treatment. Is that adequate? I assume this'll create problems… antiviral treatment efficacy The value of the time interval between an organism's taking antivirals against a specific infectious agent and the organism’s losing its infectious agent host role. The duration of time (expressed in time steps) between initiation of a particular antiviral treatment to an organism and when the organism becomes non infectious or, if the antiviral is being administered prophylactically, protected from infection. antiviral efficacy delay The fraction expressing the probability that an organism will be consented to receive antiviral treatment when eligible. The fraction of individuals in a simulated population that will accept antiviral treatment if offered. antiviral cm compliance MB: This class is still awaiting its class restriction. It should be restricted as being about a population that has members that are eligible for an antiviral treatment against the members that are eligible and consented the antiviral treatment. There is a class "eligibility rule" in OBI (http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/OBI_0500026), but it is restricted by definition to studies. I put in an issue in the OBI issue tracker. The consenting process and its specified outcome should be done in d-acts, but needs to be done properly. MW: Since the estimates that modelers use are from real populations, I have two questions: 1. Should we distinguish between real and simulated population? 2. If so, do we want to represent a ‘measured’ antiviral compliance number that is a property of a real population and distinguish it from this number that we are using to study what might happen in a simulated population? MB: This issue will need to be taken care of in the axiomatization of simulated population antiviral compliance An action specification giving the number of doses of an antiviral to be made available during a specific time interval. Counts of antiviral doses that become available in a specific location per time step unit. antiviral supply schedule An action specification that tells the total number of antiviral doses available to be administered to a population during a specific time interval. Counts of antiviral doses that can be administered in a specific location per time step unit. antiviral administration schedule A simulated organism that is assumed “eligible, willing and able” to participate with a particular control measure. A simulated organism in a simulated population that is “eligible, willing and able” to participate with a particular simulated control measure. MB: APOLLO_SV_00000053 and APOLLO_SV_00000058 have not been given a class restriction, since they are not expressible in BFO right now, due to their referring to "will". Both classes have been made disjoint in the OWL file, though. This class will need more ontological reasoning, since the "willing" part of the definition is not representable in BFO to date. simulation of organism awaiting control measure An identifier that refers to a specific simulator. Mathias Brochhausen The combination of simulator developer, simulator name, and simulator version, for example “www.psc.edu/FRED/2.0” The combination is intended to uniquely identify the simulation algorithm that produced output X, given input Y to support scientific audit, error analysis, and reproducibility of results. MB: I am not 100% happy with the elucidation. Can't we just say that this is the full identifier identifying the simulator with both its name and its version number? complete simulator identifier A simulating of a disease epidemic or pandemic. Mathias Brochhausen the process of simulating a disease epidemic or pandemic. This term is not currently used in Apollo-WS. epidemic simulation epidemic simulating Mathias Brochhausen Motivating use case is to cover Synthia data, and possibly configuration/output of the MRSA simulator in the MIDAS community (CA-MRSA Repast). hospital patient population census A simulated organism that is assumed “ineligible, unwilling or unable” to participate with a particular control measure. A simulated organism in a simulated population that is “ineligible, unwilling or unable” to participate with a particular simulated control measure. MB: APOLLO_SV_00000053 and APOLLO_SV_00000058 have not been given a class restriction, since they are not expressible in BFO right now, due to their referring to "will". Both classes have been made disjoint in the OWL file, though. This class will need more ontological reasoning, since the "unwilling" part of the definition is not representable in BFO to date. simulation of organism not awaiting control measure A simulated organism that participates in a particular control measure that has not yet been effective. This concept represents a simulated organism that has received a control measure such as vaccination in which a period of time must elapse before the benefit of the control measure accrues. A simulated organism is ‘awaiting efficacy’ if ‘efficacy delay’ (e.g. the concept ‘antiviral efficacy delay’ for the particular simulated control measure is greater than the elapsed time between application of the control measure and the current simulated time. simulation of organism awaiting effect of control measure The simulation of an antiviral control measure. A type of control measure based on administration of chemotherapeutic agents to an infected or high-risk organism that kill or inhibit replication of viruses within a simulated organism. antiviral control measure MB: For all the antiviral-related classes I referred to ChEBI: Antiviral class. I wasn't able to use the plug-in though (there was a JAVA heap space error, probably due to the size of ChEBI). AND (more importantly) I did not re-use any of the ChEBI hierarchy which, even in the BFO version is a mess. Maybe we need to discuss this. simulation of antiviral control measure A simulation of a vaccination control measure. A type of control measure that uses vaccination to create immunity in simulated organisms to specific pathogens. simulation of vaccination control measure simulation of vaccination control measure 1 Key motivating use case was Synthia synthetic population data. primary school student population A simulation of an organism in a simulated population that has participated in an epidemic control measure.

A sequence of data points, where the position in the sequence of each data point corresponds to a specific time_step of the simulation. MB: The ontological status of simulations (Thoughts) One property that seems to be common among simulations in comparison to many other fictions is the fact that the chronological order of the simulated purely intentional entities is not changed in the process of simulating. While in many pieces of fiction the order in which the purely intentional entities are created can vary, this is not the case for simulations. simulation time series A numeral that indexes a specific simulation. The run id indexes a run of a specific simulator version on a specific simulated population, disease(s), and optionally control measures.

FixedStartTime fixed control strategy start time specification A rule that is part of an infectious disease control strategy specification and specifies at which fraction of a population a control strategy is to be discontinued. A fraction of a population that is targeted for treatment at which the control strategy is discontinued. The concept derives from the epidemiological notion of ‘herd immunity,’ which is a level of immunity in a population at which there are not enough susceptible individuals for a contagious disease to maintain the chain reaction. Technically, it is when the effective reproduction rate <= 1, which means that infectious individuals at most infect one person during the course of their illness. controlStrategyReactiveEndpointFraction control strategy reactive endpoint fraction The biotic ecosystem is the sum total of all organism populations in a particular geographical region.

William R. Hogan infection process process of infection A process of reproduction of a particular pathogen species inside some tissue of a particular host species. M. Brochhausen infection is reproduction of a pathogen inside some tissue of a host. By associating infection with the classes latent period and infectious period, which are associated with specific pathogen species and host species, Apollo-SV defines infection further as reproduction of a particular pathogen taxon inside some tissue of a particular host taxon. infection The biological process of pathogen organism(s) of a particular biological taxon entering (the tissues of the body of) a host organism of another taxon from a contagious host or a contaminated thing and reproducing using host resources Mathias Brochhausen A process where a susceptible organism from a particular species becomes infected by a particular pathogen. The infection is acquired from an infected organism of a particular species or from a contaminated thing. Note that the susceptible and infectious organisms can be of different species. InfectionAcquisition Apollo-SV defines infection acquisition rather than infection transmission, which is the direction of movement of a pathogen in current use. The Apollo-SV conceptualization is simpler when accounting for infections acquired from contaminated things. The likelihood of acquisition is expressed by parameters such as the basic reproduction rate and transmission coefficient. An infection is acquired from an infectious organism or a contaminated thing. Cannot acquire from colonized host directly - contamination results from colonized or contaminated thing and new host picks it up from contaminated thing infection acquisition An identifier that refers to a type of vaccine, i.e., one of a class of manufactured vaccines that public health would consider interchangable.

Matthew Diller William R. Hogan A disposition of an organism to (i) undergo some bodily benefit that (ii) is triggered by a planned process. efficacy We often say in natural language it is the efficacy of the triggering planned process such as vaccination. However, processes do not have properties such as roles, dispositions, functions, qualities in BFO. And this is also not a process profile, because it is not the process of a quality changing values (determinates) over time. Nevertheless, it is natural to classify efficacies based on the type of triggering process because that is what differentiates what happens when they are realized. For example, a vaccination efficacy will be realized through different processes than a quarantine efficacy.

This bodily benefit takes the place of the organism or some relatively isolated part of the organism realizing some normal homeostasis disposition itself. facultative role entity Entity Julius Caesar Verdi’s Requiem the Second World War your body mass index BFO 2 Reference: In all areas of empirical inquiry we encounter general terms of two sorts. First are general terms which refer to universals or types:animaltuberculosissurgical procedurediseaseSecond, are general terms used to refer to groups of entities which instantiate a given universal but do not correspond to the extension of any subuniversal of that universal because there is nothing intrinsic to the entities in question by virtue of which they – and only they – are counted as belonging to the given group. Examples are: animal purchased by the Emperortuberculosis diagnosed on a Wednesdaysurgical procedure performed on a patient from Stockholmperson identified as candidate for clinical trial #2056-555person who is signatory of Form 656-PPVpainting by Leonardo da VinciSuch terms, which represent what are called ‘specializations’ in [81 Entity doesn't have a closure axiom because the subclasses don't necessarily exhaust all possibilites. For example Werner Ceusters 'portions of reality' include 4 sorts, entities (as BFO construes them), universals, configurations, and relations. It is an open question as to whether entities as construed in BFO will at some point also include these other portions of reality. See, for example, 'How to track absolutely everything' at http://www.referent-tracking.com/_RTU/papers/CeustersICbookRevised.pdf An entity is anything that exists or has existed or will exist. (axiom label in BFO2 Reference: [001-001]) entity Entity doesn't have a closure axiom because the subclasses don't necessarily exhaust all possibilites. For example Werner Ceusters 'portions of reality' include 4 sorts, entities (as BFO construes them), universals, configurations, and relations. It is an open question as to whether entities as construed in BFO will at some point also include these other portions of reality. See, for example, 'How to track absolutely everything' at http://www.referent-tracking.com/_RTU/papers/CeustersICbookRevised.pdf per discussion with Barry Smith An entity is anything that exists or has existed or will exist. (axiom label in BFO2 Reference: [001-001]) continuant Continuant An entity that exists in full at any time in which it exists at all, persists through time while maintaining its identity and has no temporal parts. BFO 2 Reference: Continuant entities are entities which can be sliced to yield parts only along the spatial dimension, yielding for example the parts of your table which we call its legs, its top, its nails. ‘My desk stretches from the window to the door. It has spatial parts, and can be sliced (in space) in two. With respect to time, however, a thing is a continuant.’ [60, p. 240 Continuant doesn't have a closure axiom because the subclasses don't necessarily exhaust all possibilites. For example, in an expansion involving bringing in some of Ceuster's other portions of reality, questions are raised as to whether universals are continuants A continuant is an entity that persists, endures, or continues to exist through time while maintaining its identity. (axiom label in BFO2 Reference: [008-002]) if b is a continuant and if, for some t, c has_continuant_part b at t, then c is a continuant. (axiom label in BFO2 Reference: [126-001]) if b is a continuant and if, for some t, cis continuant_part of b at t, then c is a continuant. (axiom label in BFO2 Reference: [009-002]) if b is a material entity, then there is some temporal interval (referred to below as a one-dimensional temporal region) during which b exists.

BFO 2 Reference: every occurrent that is not a temporal or spatiotemporal region is s-dependent on some independent continuant that is not a spatial region BFO 2 Reference: s-dependence obtains between every process and its participants in the sense that, as a matter of necessity, this process could not have existed unless these or those participants existed also. A process may have a succession of participants at different phases of its unfolding. Thus there may be different players on the field at different times during the course of a football game; but the process which is the entire game s-depends_on all of these players nonetheless. Some temporal parts of this process will s-depend_on on only some of the players. Occurrent doesn't have a closure axiom because the subclasses don't necessarily exhaust all possibilites. An example would be the sum of a process and the process boundary of another process. Simons uses different terminology for relations of occurrents to regions: Denote the spatio-temporal location of a given occurrent e by 'spn[e]' and call this region its span. We may say an occurrent is at its span, in any larger region, and covers any smaller region. Now suppose we have fixed a frame of reference so that we can speak not merely of spatio-temporal but also of spatial regions (places) and temporal regions (times). The spread of an occurrent, (relative to a frame of reference) is the space it exactly occupies, and its spell is likewise the time it exactly occupies. We write 'spr[e]' and `spl[e]' respectively for the spread and spell of e, omitting mention of the frame. An occurrent is an entity that unfolds itself in time or it is the instantaneous boundary of such an entity (for example a beginning or an ending) or it is a temporal or spatiotemporal region which such an entity occupies_temporal_region or occupies_spatiotemporal_region. (axiom label in BFO2 Reference: [077-002]) Every occurrent occupies_spatiotemporal_region some spatiotemporal region. (axiom label in BFO2 Reference: [108-001]) b is an occurrent entity iff b is an entity that has temporal parts. (axiom label in BFO2 Reference: [079-001]) (forall (x) (if (Occurrent x) (exists (r) (and (SpatioTemporalRegion r) (occupiesSpatioTemporalRegion x r))))) // axiom label in BFO2 CLIF: [108-001] (forall (x) (iff (Occurrent x) (and (Entity x) (exists (y) (temporalPartOf y x))))) // axiom label in BFO2 CLIF: [079-001] occurrent Occurrent doesn't have a closure axiom because the subclasses don't necessarily exhaust all possibilites.
