Prescriptive
A class with identifier http://rds.posccaesar.org/ontology/lis14/rdl/Prescriptive
| Source ontology | Industrial Data Ontology |
| is primitive | true |
| natural language definition | An entity that is part of a specification. |
| primitive rationale | The notion of specification is not defined. An explication should be given in terms of systems engineering practices. |
| usage note | This class is not intended to be used directly, but only for serving as the domain of 'installed as' and similar relations. The disjointness axiom serves to block iterated chains of 'installed as', etc., relationships. |
| Comment | A 'prescriptive [entity]' is an individual that represents the asset as designed, with restrictions that express requirements. |
| A 'prescriptive' individual may be matched with an individual representing an 'actual' individual. Naming for the according relations is tentative: 'installed as' for objects,; 'executed as' for activities; 'implemented by' for dependent entities. | |
| See also | Actual |
| Example | A "tag" individual, a function of a tag, an activity as characterised in process design. |
