is about realizable entity information content entity directive information entity 2009-03-16: provenance: a term realizable information entity was proposed for OBI (OBI_0000337) , edited by the PlanAndPlannedProcess branch. Original definition was "is the specification of a process that can be concretized and realized by an actor" with alternative term "instruction".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. 8/6/2009 Alan Ruttenberg: Changed label from "information entity about a realizable" after discussions at ICBO An information content entity whose concretizations indicate to their bearer how to realize them in a process. PERSON: Alan Ruttenberg PERSON: Bjoern Peters Werner pushed back on calling it realizable information entity as it isn't realizable. However this name isn't right either. An example would be a recipe. The realizable entity would be a plan, but the information entity isn't about the plan, it, once concretized, *is* the plan. -Alan metadata incomplete
