- 2. Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) 2.0 OWL file defines 'continuant' as 'an entity that persists, endures, or continues to exist through time while maintaining its identity.' (Source: BFO 2.0 OWL)
- 3. Entities that are ‘in time’, they are ‘wholly’ present (all their proper parts are present) at any time of their existence. (Source: Masolo, C., Borgo, S., Gangemi, A., Guarino, N., & Oltramari, A. (2003). WonderWeb Deliverable D18, Retrieved from [2]).
- 4. An entity that continues or persists through time, including (1) independent objects, (2) qualities and dispositions, and (3) the spatial regions these entities occupy at any given time. Continuant and occurrent are the two highest categories (universals) in BFO. (Source: Arp, R., Smith, B., & Spear, A.D. (2015). Building Ontologies with Basic Formal Ontology. Cambridge: The MIT Press)
