Thus there is here no counterpart of ‘object’. In BFO 1.0 ‘process’ served as such a counterpart. In BFO 2.0 ‘process’ is, rather, the occurrent counterpart of ‘material entity’. Those natural – as contrasted with engineered, which here means: deliberately executed – units which do exist in the realm of occurrents are typically either parasitic on the existence of natural units on the continuant side, or they are fiat in nature. Thus we can count lives; we can count football games; we can count chemical reactions performed in experiments or in chemical manufacturing. We cannot count the processes taking place, for instance, in an episode of insect mating behavior.Even where natural units are identifiable, for example cycles in a cyclical process such as the beating of a heart or an organism’s sleep/wake cycle, the processes in question form a sequence with no discontinuities (temporal gaps) of the sort that we find for instance where billiard balls or zebrafish or planets are separated by clear spatial gaps. Lives of organisms are process units, but they too unfold in a continuous series from other, prior processes such as fertilization, and they unfold in turn in continuous series of post-life processes such as post-mortem decay. Clear examples of boundaries of processes are almost always of the fiat sort (midnight, a time of death as declared in an operating theater or on a death certificate, the initiation of a state of war)"@en ; obo_purl:IAO_0000602 "(iff (Process a) (and (Occurrent a) (exists (b) (properTemporalPartOf b a)) (exists (c t) (and (MaterialEntity c) (specificallyDependsOnAt a c t))))) // axiom label in BFO2 CLIF: [083-003] " ; a owl:Class ; rdfs:comment "An occurrent that has temporal proper parts and for some time t, p s-depends_on some material entity at t."@en ; rdfs:isDefinedBy <http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/bfo.owl> ; rdfs:label "process"@en ; rdfs:subClassOf obo_purl:BFO_0000003 . obo_purl:ECOCORE_00000008 rdfs:subClassOf obo_purl:BFO_0000015 . obo_purl:GO_0008150 rdfs:subClassOf obo_purl:BFO_0000015 . obo_purl:RO_0002018 rdfs:domain obo_purl:BFO_0000015 ; rdfs:range obo_purl:BFO_0000015 . obo_purl:RO_0002211 rdfs:domain obo_purl:BFO_0000015 ; rdfs:range obo_purl:BFO_0000015 . obo_purl:RO_0002215 rdfs:range obo_purl:BFO_0000015 . obo_purl:RO_0002233 rdfs:domain obo_purl:BFO_0000015 . obo_purl:RO_0002334 rdfs:domain obo_purl:BFO_0000015 ; rdfs:range obo_purl:BFO_0000015 . obo_purl:RO_0002595 rdfs:range obo_purl:BFO_0000015 . obo_purl:RO_0019000 rdfs:domain obo_purl:BFO_0000015 .
