Dear Thanasi,

I understand. This may need more elaboration. The type of the phase determines the characteristic observable properties. We should see examples.

These properties may begin and end fuzzily, but that does not affect the concept, as long as inner-outer bounds can be assigned.

Best,

martin

I like this scope note but my only concern is that an observer cannot
tell when one phase ends and the next one begins. How can we explain
that a phase is no longer?

All the best,

Thanasis

Dear All,

Here a first attempt to define "phase":


       Exxx Phase

Subclass of: E2 Temporal Entity

Superclass of:E3 Condition State

Scope note:This class comprises phases during the existence and
evolution of an instance of E18 Physical Thing characterized by an
appearance, constitution or a behavior distinct from that in other times
of its existence, or distinct in the evolution of things of comparable
kind, such as the nestling, fledgling, juvenile and adult forms of
birds, but some kinds of phases may also be consequence of incidental
changes such as accidents.


Best,

Martin
