antecedent

(=>
(instance ?DEVICE CommunicationDevice)
(capability Communication instrument ?DEVICE))

Mid-level-ontology.kif 3409-3411

If an object is an instance of communication device,
then the object is capable of doing communication as a instrument

consequent

(=>
    (instance ?BROADCAST Broadcasting)
    (exists (?DEVICE)
        (and
            (instance ?DEVICE CommunicationDevice)
            (instrument ?BROADCAST ?DEVICE))))

Mid-level-ontology.kif 17178-17183

If a process is an instance of broadcasting,
then there exists an object such that the object is an instance of communication device and the object is an instrument for the process
