The Concept Meta-Model

As such, we propose here list of the main types of concepts that you may encounter or want to use:

  • Entity - is something that can generally be 'identified', pointed to or addressed;
  • Relationship or Role - is something that exists that defines or reflects the nature of the connection between two or more Entities;
  • Action or Activity
  • Event
  • State
  • Location
  • Period

Remeber that "context is everything" - some concepts may be viewed differently by different groups of people and for different reasons. It is more important to recognise this possible ambiguity than it is to obsess over getting the "right type"!
