BFO Upper Ontology Classes
Here a brief overview on the BFO classes, explained by examples. Please choose an adequate upper class for new terms or else discuss it in an issue. BFO classes are based ased on the book Building Ontologies with Basic Formal Ontology by Robert Arp, Barry Smith and Andrew D. Spear, MIT Press 2015 and ....
The great two super classes are BFO: Continuant and BFO: Occurent.
Continuants continue to exist though time , they may loose or gain parts, BUT at each point in time at which they exist, they exist completely.
