prov-wg,
I'm trying to decipher what the prov:activity element on a prov:actedOnBehalfOf element means in terms of PROV-O.
http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/prov/file/4f724446d633/examples/eg-40-xml-examples-by-term/xml/Delegation.xml
claims to be derived from example 37 of
http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-dm/#anexample-wasAssociatedWith
and includes the XML fragment:
<prov:actedOnBehalfOf>
<prov:delegate prov:ref="ag1"/>
<prov:responsible prov:ref="ag2"/>
<prov:activity prov:ref="a"/>
<prov:type xsi:type="xsd:QName">line-management</prov:type>
</prov:actedOnBehalfOf>
but the DM example does not seem to include this kind of assertion.
Perhaps Delegation.xml should cite http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-dm/#term-delegation 's example 38?
Does the prov:activity element imply:
<ag1> prov:wasAssociatedWith <a> .
or, generally:
prov:delegate/@prov:ref prov:wasAssociatedWith prov:activity/@prov:ref .
If not, why is prov:activity permitted on prov:actedOnBehalfOf?
Thanks!
Tim
