E5 Event
Subclass of:E4 <#_E4_Period> Period
Superclass of: E7 <#_E7_Activity> Activity
E63 <#_E63_Beginning_of_Existence>Beginning of Existence
E64 <#_E64_End_of_Existence>End of Existence
Scope note:This class comprises changes of states in cultural, social or
physical systems, regardless of scale, brought about by a series or
group of coherent physical, cultural, technological or legal phenomena.
Such changes of state will affect instances of E77 Persistent Item or
its subclasses.
The distinction between an E5 Event and an E4 Period is partly a
question of the scale of observation. Viewed at a coarse level of
detail, an E5 Event is an ‘instantaneous’ change of state. At a fine
level, the E5 Event can be analysed into its component phenomena within
a space and time frame, and as such can be seen as an E4 Period. The
reverse is not necessarily the case: not all instances of E4 Period give
rise to a noteworthy change of state.
*Attempt of a new one:*
Scope note: This class comprises in-principle observable,
distinct and delimited processes of material nature, in cultural, social
or physical systems, even in a human brain, involving and affecting in
a characteristic way instances of E77 Persistent Item, brought about by
some coherent physical, social or technological phenomena. An instance
of E5 Event may or may not lead to relevant permanent changes of
properties and relations of items involved in it. Properties and kinds
of things that may be affected are characteristic for the type of an event.
please comment!
