In continuation:

"Sold", "completed", "incomplete" are very specific things. Objects are offered for sale, which does not imply anything more than a sort of publication. Actual purchase is a reaction on the offer.  Purchase may happen without offer. Actual change of ownership is modeled in the CRM. The type of the event itself implies per default completion, such as production, modification etc.

The interesting case are processes which are known to be abandoned, but what that means needs further investigation: How much of action has been done and left historical traces?

Processes which have not been finished during recording time are another case. This is notoriously difficult, and resembles the "current" discussions. We may need an "still ongoing", which should be harmonized with the time-spans.

Unknown parameters of an event, such as purchase from unknown to unknown, do not need a n "outcome" property, but are just a specific event an object has experienced.

Isn't it?

Other kinds of "outcomes" can be modifications, obligations, receiving knowledge of, transfer of properties between "input-output" etc. May be it is time to study if we can create a relatively comprehensive list. Some events may only leave memory as only persistent thing, e.g. performances.

To be discussed!😁

Best,

Martin

Dear All,

The missing property of outcome is so far deliberate in the CRM, because we could not identify a general case. In contrast, there are models with input-output semantics, but this is a very small subset.

As in all such cases, we first need a collection of examples, and study if there exist common semantics, or if it splits in a set of more specific cases. I'd expect about 5 kinds of outcomes. If you give me the time, I can present in the next meeting some.

All the best,

Martin

Hi Thanasi,

The proposal creates a consistent way of doing the 'type of' version of a property that relates one particular to another particular.

So  each individual property:
https://cidoc-crm.org/Property/P20-had-specific-purpose/version-7.1.1
has its typed version like:
https://cidoc-crm.org/Property/P21-had-general-purpose/version-7.1.1

Right?

But I contend there IS NO particular property in regular CRM that expresses the semantics I indicate above (therefore the proposal cannot generate its typed version). P21 DOES NOT express the semantics I need (hence also not P23).

O13 triggers more or less does. in particular. But I need the generalization. Triggered an outcome of type.

Anyhow, not sure if anyone else needs this, but very common in my data.

Cheers,
G

    Following Athina's response and in relation to the question about
    the
    extant properties, I guess the "type of type" can be replicated with
    thesaurus related properties (e.g. P127 has broader term). I would
    consider the instances of E55 Type slightly differently to normal
    instances and not extent the idea to them.
