comment

2/3/2009 Comment from OBI review. Action specification not well enough specified. Conditional specification not well enough specified. Question whether all plan specifications have objective specifications. Request that IAO either clarify these or change definitions not to use them

definition source

OBI Plan and Planned Process branch, OBI_0000344

editor note

Alternative previous definition: a plan is a set of instructions that specify how an objective should be achieved, 2014-03-31: A plan specification can have other parts, such as conditional specifications., 2009-03-16: provenance: a term a plan was proposed for OBI (OBI_0000344) , edited by the PlanAndPlannedProcess branch. Original definition was " a plan is a specification of a process that is realized by an actor to achieve the objective specified as part of the plan". It has been subsequently moved to IAO where the objective for which the original term was defined was satisfied with the definitionof this, different, term.
