http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#InstantaneousEvent
An instantaneous event, or event for short, happens in the world and marks a change in the world, in its activities and in its entities. The term 'event' is commonly used in process algebra with a similar meaning. Events represent communications or interactions; they are assumed to be atomic and instantaneous.
Instances of prov:InstantaneousEvent can have the following properties:
| PROPERTY | TYPE | DESCRIPTION | RANGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| From class prov:InstantaneousEvent | |||
| prov:atTime | owl:DatatypeProperty | The time at which an InstantaneousEvent occurred, in the form of xsd:dateTime. | xsd:dateTime |
| From class owl:Thing | |||
| owl:versionInfo | owl:AnnotationProperty | owl:Thing | |
| prov:aq | owl:AnnotationProperty | owl:Thing | |
| prov:category | owl:AnnotationProperty | Classify prov-o terms into three categories, including 'starting-point', 'qualifed', and 'extended'. This classification is used by the prov-o html document to gently introduce prov-o terms to its users. | owl:Thing |
| prov:component | owl:AnnotationProperty | Classify prov-o terms into six components according to prov-dm, including 'agents-responsibility', 'alternate', 'annotations', 'collections', 'derivations', and 'entities-activities'. This classification is used so that readers of prov-o specification can find its correspondence with the prov-dm specification. | owl:Thing |
| prov:constraints | owl:AnnotationProperty | A reference to the principal section of the PROV-CONSTRAINTS document that describes this concept. | owl:Thing |
| prov:definition | owl:AnnotationProperty | A definition quoted from PROV-DM or PROV-CONSTRAINTS that describes the concept expressed with this OWL term. | owl:Thing |
| prov:dm | owl:AnnotationProperty | A reference to the principal section of the PROV-DM document that describes this concept. | owl:Thing |
| prov:editorialNote | owl:AnnotationProperty | A note by the OWL development team about how this term expresses the PROV-DM concept, or how it should be used in context of semantic web or linked data. | owl:Thing |
| prov:editorsDefinition | owl:AnnotationProperty | When the prov-o term does not have a definition drawn from prov-dm, and the prov-o editor provides one. | owl:Thing |
| prov:influenced | owl:ObjectProperty | owl:Thing | |
| prov:inverse | owl:AnnotationProperty | PROV-O does not define all property inverses. The directionalities defined in PROV-O should be given preference over those not defined. However, if users wish to name the inverse of a PROV-O property, the local name given by prov:inverse should be used. | owl:Thing |
| prov:n | owl:AnnotationProperty | A reference to the principal section of the PROV-DM document that describes this concept. | owl:Thing |
| prov:order | owl:AnnotationProperty | The position that this OWL term should be listed within documentation. The scope of the documentation (e.g., among all terms, among terms within a prov:category, among properties applying to a particular class, etc.) is unspecified. | owl:Thing |
| prov:qualifiedForm | owl:AnnotationProperty | This annotation property links a subproperty of prov:wasInfluencedBy with the subclass of prov:Influence and the qualifying property that are used to qualify it. Example annotation: prov:wasGeneratedBy prov:qualifiedForm prov:qualifiedGeneration, prov:Generation . Then this unqualified assertion: :entity1 prov:wasGeneratedBy :activity1 . can be qualified by adding: :entity1 prov:qualifiedGeneration :entity1Gen . :entity1Gen a prov:Generation, prov:Influence; prov:activity :activity1; :customValue 1337 . Note how the value of the unqualified influence (prov:wasGeneratedBy :activity1) is mirrored as the value of the prov:activity (or prov:entity, or prov:agent) property on the influence class. | owl:Thing |
| prov:sharesDefinitionWith | owl:AnnotationProperty | owl:Thing | |
| prov:todo | owl:AnnotationProperty | owl:Thing | |
| prov:unqualifiedForm | owl:AnnotationProperty | Classes and properties used to qualify relationships are annotated with prov:unqualifiedForm to indicate the property used to assert an unqualified provenance relation. | owl:Thing |

:definition "The PROV data model is implicitly based on a notion of instantaneous events (or just events), that mark transitions in the world. Events include generation, usage, or invalidation of entities, as well as starting or ending of activities. This notion of event is not first-class in the data model, but it is useful for explaining its other concepts and its semantics."@en .
