Barry had these suggestions:

objective specification this definition a directive information entity that describes an intended process endpoint. When part of a plan specification the concretization is realized in a planned process in which the bearer tries to effect the world so that the process endpoint is achieved.

needs to join together logically its two parts

in something like the following way:

a directive information entity that describes an intended process endpoint in such a way that it can form part of a plan specification whose concretization is realized in a planned process in which the bearer tries to effect the world so that the process endpoint is achieved.

achieves_planned_objective Term IRI: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/OBI_0000417 definition: This relation obtains between a planned process and a objective specification when the criteria specified in the objective specification are met at the end of the planned process. change 'a objective' to 'an objective'

change 'at the end of the planned process' to 'as a result of the planned process

Note the classical definition of a directive speech act from speech act theory:

directives = speech acts that are to cause the hearer to take a particular action, e.g. requests, commands and advice

This suggests a definition of directive ICE as:

An information content entity that (1) includes a specification of one or more actions and (2) is communicated to one or more agents in a way that is designed to cause them to acting in accordance with these specifications.
