<dct:description xml:lang="en">The process execution ontology is a proposal for a simple extension of both the [W3C Semantic Sensor Network](https://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-ssn/) and the [Semantic Actuator Network](https://www.irit.fr/recherches/MELODI/ontologies/SAN.owl) ontology cores.
SSN describe `ssn:Sensor`s that implement `ssn:Sensing` methods and generate `ssn:Observation`s, which are (soon to be) activities.
In parallel to this, SAN describes `san:Actuator`s that implement `san:Acting` methods and generate `ssn:Actuation` activities.
In this ontology, we want to generalize these two parallel conceptual models, and account for a third use case: *Web services exposed on the web may trigger the execution of some processes*.
We hence propose the following core concepts for the Process Execution ontology:
> `pep:ProcessExecutor`s implement `pep:Process` methods, and generate `pep:ProcessExecution`s activities.
_Note: we call for comments and suggestions about the naming of these concepts [in this project open issue](https://github.com/thesmartenergy/pep/issues/1)_
As sensing and acting methods in SSN and SAN, processes may describe the necessary inputs and outputs. This is represented using properties `pep:hasInput` and `pep:hasOutput`. These properties may also be used to describe the actual input and output of a specific process execution.
Figure below overviews the PEP ontology, and illustrates it with an example.

Additional documents describe alignments with other existing ontologies:
- [the Semantic Sensor Network ontology](https://w3id.org/pep/SSNAlignment);
- [the RDF Presentation ontology](https://w3id.org/pep/RDFPAlignment).
## Process Execution Platform
[Process execution platforms](https://w3id.org/pep/platform.html) expose process executors on the Web in a RESTful way.
