Formal Axioms
First-Order Logic Axioms
LogisticsProcess(x) → BusinessProcess(x) ∧ ∃p((ReceivingProcess(p) ∨ ShipmentPreparationProcess(p) ∨ StorageProcess(p) ∨ FreightForwardingProcess(p) ∨ TransportProcess(p)) ∧ hasOccurrentPart (x,p))
Semi-Formal Natural Language Axioms
if x is a ‘logistics process’ then x is a ‘business process’ that ‘has occurrent part’ some ‘receiving process’ or ‘shipment preparation process’ or ‘storage process’ or ‘transport process’ or ‘freight forwarding process’
