• Category: class
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/procedures
• Box roles: TBox role (What is this?)

An event that enacts a Procedure or one of its ProcedureSteps. The execution side of the plan ⟂ execution de-conflation: an occurrence that realises a prescriptive spec. Reuses the existing event stack (Participation for agent/tool assignment, Allen relations for temporal ordering, eventInterval / eventTime for dating).

Structure

Subclass of: gmeow:Event

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:Execution as a specialized kind of gmeow:Event. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.

# Worked example: a procedure separates CONTROL flow from DATA flow . A
# gmeow:Procedure has gmeow:ProcedureSteps; gmeow:ControlFlow edges say in what
# ORDER steps run, while gmeow:DataFlow edges say WHICH DATA moves between them —
# two distinct graphs over the same steps, because "runs after" and "depends on
# the output of" are different relations. A gmeow:Execution is one concrete RUN of
# the procedure, with an gmeow:executionStatus and its participant. The same model
# covers a recipe, a lab protocol, a CI build, and an agent flow (procedureType).
