Hi all,

I’m sure there’s a good reason why this is not a good idea, and if I had been 
at the meetings since the early days I surely would know why it’s not a good 
idea … but …

Could E92 not be a sub class of E2, if we were to separate out E3 Condition 
State in the work to model States / Phases more thoroughly?
Then P160 could just be deprecated in favor of P4?  P10, P132 and P133 are all 
still valuable, as they include the intersection of space as well as of time.

My first thought was that the properties of E2 other than P4 are not applicable 
to E18 (and descendants) … but if P160 is, and P132/P133 are, then there must 
be some temporality that can have a start and end, as given in the temporal 
projection.   The temporal projection of Rob starts after the start of the 
temporal projection of Rob’s mother seems like a reasonable thing to assert, if 
we can have timespans/temporal projections.

E92

Dear All,

We consider the following properties:

P4 has time-span (is time-span of)
Domain:              E2 Temporal Entity
Range:                E52 Time-Span
Quantification:    many to one, necessary, dependent (1,1:1,n)

P160  has temporal projection (is temporal projection of)
Domain: E92 Spacetime Volume
Range: E52 Time-Span
Quantification: one to one (1,1:1,1)


In FOL:

P4(x,y) ⊃ E2(x), P4(x,y) ⊃ E52(y)
P160(x,y) ⊃ E92(x), P160(x,y)⊃ E52(y)
The problem comes from this: E4 Period being a spacetime volume and a temporal 
entity.

E4(x) ⊃ E2(x), E4(x) ⊃ E92(x)

I now propose to: declare P4, to imply P160  from E4 Period "downwards":

(P4(x,y) ∧E4(x)) ⊃ P160(x,y), (P160(x,y) ∧E4(x)) ⊃ P4(x,y).

We may then recommend to use only P4 from E4 Period downwards.

I do not know, if we would also need (P160(x,y) ∧E4(x)) ⊃ P4(x,y) in order to 
make them identical from E4 downwards.

================================================

Further:

P7 took place at (witnessed)
Domain:              E4 Period
Range:                E53 Place

Quantification:    many to many, necessary (1,n:0,n)

"The related E53 Place should be seen as a wider approximation of the geometric 
area within which the phenomena that characterize the period in question 
occurred, see below."

P161 has spatial projection (is spatial projection of)
Domain: E92 Spacetime Volume
Range: E53 Place
Superproperty of: E18 Physical Thing. P156 occupies (is occupied by): E53 Place
Quantification: one to many, necessary, dependent (1,n:1,1)

Firstly, I believe the quantification of P161 must be Quantification:    many 
to many, necessary (1,n:0,n). A place needs not be the projection of a 
Spacetime Volume.

Then, in FOL:
P7(x,y) ⊃ E4(x), P7(x,y) ⊃ E53(y)
P161(x,y) ⊃ E92(x), P161(x,y) ⊃ E53(y)
I propose to add: The spatial projection of an E4 Period is a "took place at".
(P161(x,y) ∧E4(x)) ⊃ P7(x,y).
Opinions?

Best,

Martin
