PROV-ISSUE-223 (definition-of-entity): What is the definition of entity [prov-dm] http://www.w3.org/2011/prov/track/issues/223 Raised by: Luc Moreau On product: prov-dm The prov-dm documents has some form of definition for entity [1] and entity record [2] (likewise, activity [5] and activity record [6]). Recent discussions indicate that the definitions are not rigorous enough, and subject to too much interpretation. Indications that an entity can potentially characterize multiple things [3], or that an entity is a class definition [4] are examples of the breadth of interpretation. The WG should aim to refine these definitions.
