Issue 16524: "Projection" Needs to Be Renamed (sbvr-rtf) Source: Business Rules Group (Mr. Ronald G. Ross, rross(at)BRSolutions.com) Nature: Uncategorized Issue Severity: Summary: Problem Statement: "Projection" is currently defined in Clause 9.3 to be a semantic formulation. This usage of the term is counterintuitive for several reasons. (1) Semantic formulations are a way of structuring meaning particular to SBVR. (2) "Projection" can be used to mean the 'process' of projecting, rather than the *result* of projection, as usually preferred in SBVR. (3) "Projection" should be included in SBVR under its appropriate real-world meaning. Resolution: 1. Change each instance of "projection" in Clause 9.3 to "projecting formulae" 2. Inspect every other instance of "projection" in SBVR to determine whether it refers to "a projecting formulae" or to the process of projection ("projecting"), and adjust accordingly. 3. Add a real-world concept and definition for "projection" and for "bag" as currently used in "bag projection". (It needs to be determined where in SBVR this entry should be included.)
