Ok, but why can't I use the URIs of process occurrences to put
them in multiple sequences and use them to specify the partial
order. For example, if I wanted A before B, B before C, and B
before D, I could use something like this:
(unordered
(sequence URI-for-A URI-for-B)
(sequence URI-for-B URI-for-C)
(sequence URI-for-B URI-for-D))
What is it in OWL-S that disallows that approach?
