Graphical Overview




Classes

SRPC3 in social relation

The class SRPC3 materializes the SRP3 relation as a class. It does so to enable an n-ary construct used to indicate the nature of the relationship that holds between the instance of E21 person designated as its domain and the instance of E21 Person designated as its range. ie: if E55 instantiated as Father then the semantic interpretation of this is E21(a) ‘has father’ E21(b), the relation is not symmetric.
