> The requester specifies its "desired outcome", e.g., > "I want to buy a book of J.R.R. Tolkien". > In the cyberspace it means that "an invoice for a book > of Tolkien is delivered to the requester". > > Why not go all the way and say that the formal meaning of the goal is > (informally!) "I own a book by Tolkien (that I didn't already own)"? > -- > -- Drew McDermott > What is the meaning of the formula: "?person owns ?book by Tolkien" Or, when is this formula true? My answer: If something happens, i.e., if the goal formula is translated into a plan, and then the plan is arranged as a workflow, and finally the workflow is executed successfully. -- Stanislaw Ambroszkiewicz
