Classes & Properties Declarations of CRMact version: 0.2 (DRAFT)

This class comprises plans foreseeing specific predefined activities or kinds of activities taking place. They consist of descriptions of specific constraints, patterns or types of activities that could be realized. They may also foresee that the planned activities are realized at times explicitly foreseen by the actor intending the application of the plan, for instance, to organize a conference, in which case we may talk about “active plans”. Alternatively, times of realization may be foreseen in reaction to external events of a kind foreseen by the plan, for instance the rescue activity after an earthquake following a rescue plan, or a penal action in the case of criminal activity according to a penal code, in which case we may talk about “reactive plans”. The existence of an instance of Activity Plan does not necessarily imply the intention of any Actor to apply it. It may be created together, before or without the will to apply it. For instance, laws are created before they are passed by parliament. Any Activity Plan may require specific conditions for it to be applicable. For example, a plan to excavate a river bank may require that the river is flooded, or my plan to lime plaster my stone wall requires that it is winter (i.e. wet and cold).

• the disaster plan of Tate Archives in case of the Thames flooding
• the proposal for conservation work for MS Greek 418 at the Saint Catherine library
• the provisions of Law 3730/2008 of the Greek Government against smoking in work places

actE2(x) ⇒ E29(x)

This class comprises the mental states of individual instances of E39 Actor that intend to or want to apply a particular instance of Activity Plan. This can be understood as the period of time when an individual or group holds a particular will. It binds the activity plan to the actor. The ‘intention to apply’ may be abandoned before the realization of the plan. When the plan is actually realized, the ‘intention to apply’ must necessarily still exist. Characteristically, the passing of a law initiates the intention of a parliament to apply the law. In many cases, the creation of the plan initiates the intention to apply it, and in the case of “active plans” the completed realization of the plan ends the intention. Often, the existence of the ‘intention to apply’ cannot be determined other than by the realization of the plan.

• the intention of the German governments, from the Empire to the Federal Republic to apply paragraph 175, making homosexuality a punishable offence, from 1872 to 1991

actE3(x) ⇒ E2(x)

This class comprises templates of events for Activity Plans by providing necessary or desirable constraints to the properties of the foreseen instance of an event, be it on the level of particular items involved or on the level of kinds of processes, items or qualities and quantities involved. Instances of Event Template may be used to recognize that a past event fitted the specification, or for specifying future events. Characteristically, instances of this class are created in association with instances of actE2 Activity Plan, as templates for the events that should trigger the execution of an Activity Plan or as templates for the activities that should take place during the execution of an Activity Plan. For example, we expect a disaster plan for a library to be executed when the disaster happens or the disaster readiness plan to be triggered on the readiness exercise test day.

actP11(x,y) ⇒ actE3(x)

actP11(x,y) ⇒ E31(y)

This property associates an instance of actE3 Intention to Apply with the declarative time constraint foreseen by the intending party for the actual application of the activity plan. The intending party may alter the time constraint over time. In case the newly set time constraint narrows a previously set time constraint, one may regard both constraints as being simultaneously true and consistent. In the case that the newly set time constraint does not just narrow the previous one (typically delaying the foreseen time of application), it should be regarded as a modification of the overall ‘intention to apply’. The result of this modification should be regarded as an ‘intention to apply’ in its own right that is part of an overall instance of actE3 Intention to Apply, which continues to be held.
