delegation PROV-O example missing activity reference

State:
CLOSED
Product:
Primer
Raised by:
Stephan Zednik
Opened on:
2012-11-01
Description:
The PROV-N example specifies that ex:derek was acting on behalf of ex:chartgen during the ex:compose activity.

agent(ex:chartgen,
[prov:type='prov:Organization',
foaf:name="Chart Generators Inc"])
actedOnBehalfOf(ex:derek, ex:chartgen, ex:compose)

This reference to ex:compose is not present in the PROV-O encoding of this same example.

ex:derek prov:actedOnBehalfOf ex:chartgen .
ex:chartgen a prov:Agent ;
a prov:Organization ;
foaf:name "Chart Generators Inc" .

Related notes:

The primer now contains the following text which I think adequately explains that delegations can be both activity-specific as well as general (global?).

"It would also be possible to express the more specific statement that Derek worked on the organization's behalf for a particular activity, rather than in general, and so may have acted on behalf of other organizations for other activities. See the PROV specifications for details on how to express activity-specific delegation."

Consequently, I am closing this issue.
