Formal Axioms

First-Order Logic Axioms

SupplyRelationship(x) β†’ SpecificallyDependentContinuant(x) ∧ βˆƒr1βˆƒr2βˆƒc(CustomerRole(r1) ∧ SupplierRole(r2) ∧ Agreement(c) ∧ specificallyDependsOn(x,r1) ∧ specificallyDependsOn(x,r2) ∧ prescribedBy(x,c))

Semi-Formal Natural Language Axioms

if x is a β€˜supply relationship’ then x is a β€˜specifically dependant continuant’ and x β€˜specifically depends on’ some β€˜supplier role’ and some β€˜customer role’ and x is β€˜prescribed by’ some β€˜agreement’
