Motion P1788/M0021.02:RevisedIntervalOverlapping discussion period begins



P-1788,

Since the revised motion has been put forward by Juergen Wolff von Gudenberg and seconded
by Nate Hayes, it will now be discussed and put to a vote according to
the rules for position papers.  The discussion will continue until November 21.

Juergen:  Thank you for already posting this information, as well as the
          position paper, to the P1788 site at

          http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/1788/private/Motions/AllMotions.html

(Anyone who needs the password to that web area should contact me.)

Guillaume:  Please record this action in the minutes.

=============================================================================
Baker,
please find attached the revised version of our position paper
overlapping.pdf
Particularly the relations with empty sets have been updated.
Since we have changed the position paper given the rationale for our motion, I think the politically correct way is to withdraw the old motion and move a new one motion 21.2. Hence I withdraw the old version and move
Motion 21.2
P1788 should provide access to the states of the interval overlapping
relation. In particular it should provide a function on two intervals a and b whose range is the set of 13 states defined by tables 1 and 2.
Additionally the functionality of the abstract data type IOV described by table 8 in section 5 of the position paper should be available.
For full flexibility the atomic operations should be available as comparisons, see Table 9."

This motion is to be understood as a supplement to motion 13.04.
The advantages are outlined in the position paper that serves as
rationale for the motion.
Note that we do not want to change the traditional way of interval comparisons as outlined in motion 13.04 but we want P1788 to provide  an additional way as an option, that may offer some new kind of applications.


regards
Juergen
