General description

Name:	Participation
Submitted by:	AldoGangemi
Also Known As:
Intent:	To represent participation of an object in an event.
Domains:	General
Competency Questions:	Which objects do participate in this event? Which events do this object participate in?
Solution description:	This pattern is a basic one, and enables the representation of any simple binary relation between objects and events.
Reusable OWL Building Block:	1 (531)
Consequences:	It is possible to model whatever relation between objects and events. Using cardinality restrictions appropriately allows to limit the number of participants, e.g. 'life of' is a specialization of this pattern that requires a functional object property (cardinality 1. . .1). This is a non-temporal version of the particpation relation. If we need a time-indexed relation, use http://ontologydesignpatterns.owl/cp/owl/timeindexedparticipation.owl
Scenarios:	Aldo Gangemi participated in the premiere of La Dolce Vita.

isParticipantIn (owl:ObjectProperty)

isParticipantIn page

Event (owl:Class) Any physical, social, or mental process, event, or state.

Event page

Object (owl:Class) Any physical, social, or mental object, or substance

Object page

The basic participation pattern, without temporal indexing. It clones equivalent elements from DOLCE-UltraLite.
