ISSUE-179: defaults to prov:steps="n" causes issue in PROV-O
TLebo
defaults to prov:steps="n" causes issue in PROV-O
- State:
- CLOSED
- Product:
- Ontology
- Raised by:
- Timothy Lebo
- Opened on:
- 2011-12-02
- Description:
- Imposing a "default" value for prov:steps will cause issues in PROV-O, which embraces the open world.
From [1]:
"It is optional to include the attribute prov:steps in an imprecise-n derivation record. It defaults to prov:steps="n"."
An OWL axiom such as "imprecise-n derivation records must have values of prov:step that are integers greater than 1" can be done, and if an instance of Derivation is typed to "imprecise-n derivation record", then one knows that it has more than one step -- even when no prov:step has been asserted.
If this OWL approach is taken, would we be violating the DM's "It defaults to prov:steps="n"."?
Thanks,
Tim
