parameter entity

• CURIE: gmeow:parameterEntity
• IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/parameterEntity
• Category: property
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/norms
• Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)

The bound entity for IRI-valued bindings. Range intentionally open. A parameter carries exactly one of parameterValue / parameterEntity (SHACL).

Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:ConditionParameter -> ?; functional

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:parameterEntity from gmeow:ConditionParameter to ? when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Common Companion Terms

gmeow:ConditionParameter

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to bind a parameter to an entity for IRI-valued bindings — 'jurisdiction = ex:canada'.

Avoid when

• Avoid using it for a literal binding (that is gmeow:parameterValue) and avoid carrying both — a parameter holds exactly one of the two (SHACL).

How to use

• Assert gmeow:parameterEntity once per entity-valued gmeow:ConditionParameter; switch to gmeow:parameterValue when the binding is a literal.

Examples

• ex:p2 gmeow:parameterEntity ex:canada.
