- Category: property
- Defined by:
gmeow:slices/events - Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)
Relates an event to a larger event it is part of — a talk within a session within a conference. Transitive: a part of a part is a part (CIDOC-CRM P9 consists of). A specialization of the universal gmeow:partOf spine. Non-simple, so kept out of all cardinality axioms.
Structure
Property shape: object property; gmeow:Event -> gmeow:Event
Sub-property of: gmeow:partOf
Practical Pattern
Use gmeow:subEventOf from gmeow:Event to gmeow:Event when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Usage Advice
Use when
- Use for mereological event decomposition — a talk within a session within a conference — where one occurrence is genuinely PART OF a larger occurrence; the event-scoped specialization of
gmeow:partOf.
Avoid when
- Avoid confusing it with the TEMPORAL
gmeow:during(which only orders extents) or the SPATIALgmeow:containedInLocation; sub-event-of is part-whole, not mere temporal nesting or co-location.
How to use
- Assert
gmeow:subEventOffrom the smaller event to the larger; transitivity builds the decomposition closure and generic consumers readgmeow:partOfby inheritance. Readgmeow:hasSubEventas its inverse.
