Generation should be defined as an identifable activity

State:

CLOSED

Product:

prov-dm

Raised by:

Paul Groth

Opened on:

2011-07-23

Description:

Currently, Generation is introduced as follows:

"Generation represents the creation of a new characterized entity by an activity."

However, the definition requires a reference to a process execution. Given that process execution is defined as an "identifiable activity", it would seem to be better to change the definition to:

"Generation represents the creation of a new characterized entity by an identifiable activity."
