HasContact

HasContact is a base relation type to capture the diverse points of contact associated with a resource. This relation is abstract because if not specialised it does not add any semantic of relating the resource with the target ContactFacet <ContactFacet>. Instead, every specialisation refines the reason of using the ContactFacet <ContactFacet> allowing to discriminate between two or more ContactFacet <ContactFacet> attached to the same resource.The identified specialisations are: HasContributor <HasContributor>, HasCreator <HasCreator>, HasCurator <HasCurator>, HasDeveloper <HasDeveloper>, HasMaintainer <HasMaintainer>, HasManager <HasManager> and HasOwner <HasOwner>.

HasCoverage

HasCoverage represents the type of coverage that is provided by the CoverageFacet.Let consider a dataset containing information regarding the salinity of a specific ocean area in a certain amount of time. What is essential in the Information System isnot representing the data of the salinity. Instead, to specify the temporal period and the ocean area the dataset is valid. This information is captured using the same schema, i.e., the CoverageFacet <CoverageFacet> but using different relations to distinguish between them with no need to understand the value or the schema of the coverage. For such a reason it has been defined the abstract HasCoverage relation and the specialisation HasTemporalCoverage <HasTemporalCoverage> and HasSpatialCoverage <HasSpatialCoverage> have been defined to refines the reason of using the CoverageFacet <CoverageFacet>.

HasMemory

HasMemory is a base relation type to capture the diverse type of memories associated with a resource. This relation is abstract because if not specialised it does not add any semantic of relating the resource with the target MemoryFacet <MemoryFacet>. It is in charge of the specialisation HasVolatileMemory <HasVolatileMemory> and HasPersistentMemory <HasPersistentMemory> to clarify the semantics of the memory (any resource describing a computing machine must have at least two types of memories, i.e., persistent and volatile).We do not exclude other specialisation required by services to select the appropriated memory better. For example, to discriminate between Solid State Disk and Magnetic Rotative.

HasPersistentMemory

HasPersistentMemory indicates that the target MemoryFacet <MemoryFacet> indicates a non-volatile memory, i.e., a memory which does not lose the data when the device is powered down. This type of memory is also known as secondary memory, external memory, auxiliary storage, or secondary storage. Of course more than one MemoryFacet related with HasPersistentMemory can be attached to the same resource, but actually from an infrastructure management point of view, we did not find any reason to further specialise the HasPersistentMemory relation. Anyway, we do not exclude other specialisation required by services to select the appropriated persistent memory better. For example, to discriminate between Solid State Disk and Magnetic Rotative.

IsIdentifiedBy

Each GCubeResource <GCubeResource> has been defined to have at least a facet linked with an IsIdentifiedBy relation. IsIdentifiedBy indicates that the target facet represents a sort of identification for the source resource. For instance, a software can consist of one or more SoftwareFacet <SoftwareFacet> but the one related with IsIdentifiedBy represents the identify of the software.
