Ontology Overview

Name:	Process Specification Language Core (PSL)
Description:	PSL-Core axiomatizes a set of intuitive semantic primitives that is adequate for describing the fundamental concepts of manufacturing processes.
Purpose:	software interoperability, decision support
Organization(s):	NIST
Author(s):	Michael Gruninger, Conrad Bock, Bob Young
Justification	Formally rigorous. Heavy use of competency questions, both informal and formal. Deployed in industrial scenarios. Basis for highly modular set of ontologies. ISO 18629
Recommended by:
Submitted by:	MichaelUschold
Competency Questions:	Identify the set of activities that occurred before a particular timepoint., Are there any activities that have no occurrences?, Which timepoints did no activities occur at?, Which objects participated in a given activity occurrence at a specific timepoint.
Domains:
Scenario:	Software exchanging process information between a planner and a scheduler
Known issues:	none
OntologyURI:	1 (0)
Licensing:	ISO Standard
