Abstract
In this paper we examine the technical performance of the current version of the semantic exchange standard for the subject-oriented process-modeling language PASS (Parallel Activity Specification Schema). Based on our findings we propose changes to the standard that have the potential to significantly increase the reasoning performance.

Notes
- 1.
The open world assumption used in OWL explicitly allows incomplete descriptions, under the assumption that missing parts are defined somewhere else or at least can be provided later on without causing inconsistencies. For validation purposes the opposite of this assumption is required, to know if the current model is correct or not.
- 2.
Using terms/notation from the standard-PASS-ont directly.
- 3.
This would be different if the goal was to define constraints and conditions for “complete” or “executable” process models. Though for the purpose of model exchange such much more strict definitions are not required.
