[adapt defs] tool, technology, tooling
initial description:
Requires disambiguation. There is some overlap and circularity in the defs.
proposed changes:
label_en: technology
def_en: A collection of entities which explicitly includes knowledge about how to use the other entities to increase the efficiency of a planned process or its range of effect.
def_de: Eine Sammlung von Entitäten, welche explizit das Wissen darüber einschließt, wie diese Entitäten genutzt werden können um die Effizienz eines geplanten Prozesses zu erhöhen oder dessen Wirkungsbereich erweitern.
comment: The entities of such a collection may be but are not limited to tools, methods/techniques, concepts, knowledge systems as well as the skills of personnel to be able to use them. As such it can be seen as the application of knowledge for practical purposes.

subClassOf: entity
label_en: tool
def_en: A continuant which realises a tool role.
def_de: Ein continuant, die eine Rolle als Werkzeug realisiert.
subClassOf:
- continuant
- is continuant and realises tool role.
comment: A tool might extend the capability of a user and/or give it the capability to perform a process that is not possible without it. Tools are not part of the entity (i.e. Input) that an action is performed on (i.e. a wrench is not part of the car) and are typically not consumed during the process.
label_en: tool role
def_en: A role which inheres in an entity and is realised when this entity increases the efficiency of a planned process or extend its range of effect.
def_de: Eine Rolle, die einer Entität innewohnt und realisiert wird, wenn diese Entität die Effizienz eines geplanten Prozesses erhöht oder dessen Wirkungsbereich erweitert.
subClassOf: role
ToDo's:
-
adjust def de -
adjust def en -
adjust comment -
add dbxref to technology -
depricate/obsolete tooling
because we deem it not used primarily in digitization context. -
change def of tool de -
change def of tool en -
add relation to tool -
add new class tool role
