DTV_ — Definition of 'time interval is current'

  • Summary:

    In clause 15.1 page 154 DTV defines 'time interval is current' as:
    "time interval that includes a time interval1 that is past and that includes a time interval2 that is not past"

    That definition is ambiguous and the most likely parse is nonsense. The problem is that 'and that includes' might be parsed to refer to time interval1, which is not what was intended. The intent is
    "time interval that includes both a time interval that is in the past and a time interval that is not past". I believe SBVR SE might support this latter formulation (perhaps without the 'both').

  • Disposition Summary:

    This is a minor problem with formulating the definition in SBVR Structured English. The definition is reworded to eliminate the 'and that includes'.
