Instances | abstrait | Properties or qualities as distinguished from any particular embodiment of the properties/qualities in a physical medium. Instances of Abstract can be said to exist in the same sense as mathematical objects such as sets and relations, but they cannot exist at a particular place and time without some physical encoding or embodiment. |
| entit� | The universal class of individuals. This is the root node of the ontology. |
| InheritableRelation | The class of Relations whose properties can be inherited downward in the class hierarchy via the subrelation Predicate. |
| PPPBasedEconomicValuation | PPPBasedEconomicValuation is a class of relations used to state international economic information in U.S. dollar amounts. The U.S. dollar amounts are derived from Purchasing Power Parity conversions of economic totals (e.g., GDP) given in local currency. This contrasts with a method of conversion based on currency exchange rates. The PPP method is used by the CIA World Fact Book for the purpose of presenting economic data for all countries covered. Their basis for PPP dollar price weights is the UN International Comparison Program (UNICP) and the work of Professors Robert Summers and Alan Heston of the University of Pennsylvania. |
| predicat | A Predicate is a sentence-forming Relation. Each tuple in the Relation is a finite, ordered sequence of objects. The fact that a particular tuple is an element of a Predicate is denoted by '(*predicate* arg_1 arg_2 .. arg_n)', where the arg_i are the objects so related. In the case of BinaryPredicates, the fact can be read as `arg_1 is *predicate* arg_2' or `a *predicate* of arg_1 is arg_2'. |
| relation | The Class of relations. There are two kinds of Relation: Predicate and Function. Predicates and Functions both denote sets of ordered n-tuples. The difference between these two Classes is that Predicates cover formula-forming operators, while Functions cover term-forming operators. |
| pr�dicat ternaire | The Class of Predicates that require exactly three arguments. |
| relation ternaire | TernaryRelations relate three items. The two subclasses of TernaryRelation are TernaryPredicate and BinaryFunction. |
