NuclearPoweredDevice nuclear-powered device Pretty String (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> TERM STRING) means that STRING is the English word or expression (sequence of words) commonly used to refer to TERM. The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> is used by the code which generates CycL to English paraphrases, but its applicability is not restricted to this use. prettyString WaterTransportationVehicle water vehicle A specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjGhZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">WaterTransportationDevice</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLzhaZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">TransportationDevice_Vehicle</a>.

Specializations of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4ropDJ5oVoQdeADpzQMiIrgg" class="cyc_term">WaterTransportationVehicle</a> include the collections <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQCb9JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">CruiseShip</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViMW5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Submarine</a>, but not collections of non-<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjUvZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SelfPoweredDevice</a>s such as <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjW8JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Sailboat</a> or <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvgEYsJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Rowboat</a>. VehicleTypeByPathway type of vehicle classified by pathway used Instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4r-Lq2nITNQdeahbao7GpHpg" class="cyc_term">VehicleTypeByPathway</a> are collections of vehicles (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLzhaZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">TransportationDevice_Vehicle</a>), each of which group together vehicle instances which are designed to traverse particular types of pathways. For example, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4r_qaMjITKQdefc9lu1TOnMA" class="cyc_term">LandTransportationVehicle</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rz9o1UoVbQdeGXJ2yLxG0_A" class="cyc_term">AirTransportationVehicle</a> are members of this collection. A predicate that is used to make exceptions to constraints normally imposed by some instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViA4pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SiblingDisjointCollectionType</a> or <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rk8dxOFcGEdaLwgACs0uFOQ" class="cyc_term">SiblingDisjointSetOrCollectionType</a> (qq.v.). <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQtVmpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">siblingDisjointExceptions</a> <b>SETORCOL1</b> <b>SETORCOL2</b>)</code> means that the pair consisting of <code><b>SETORCOL1</b></code> and <code><b>SETORCOL2</b></code> is exempt from the disjointness constraint that would otherwise be imposed because those set-or-collections are both elements of some instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViA4pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SiblingDisjointCollectionType</a> or <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rk8dxOFcGEdaLwgACs0uFOQ" class="cyc_term">SiblingDisjointSetOrCollectionType</a>. (See these collections' comments for a full explanation of the constraints.) <p/> For example, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rv0GdXpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SensoryNerve</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvWvJVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">CranialNerve</a> are both instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwKTnSJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">OrganismPartType</a>, which in turn is an instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViA4pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SiblingDisjointCollectionType</a>. Consequently, since <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rv0GdXpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SensoryNerve</a> is not a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvWvJVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">CranialNerve</a> (or vice versa), the two collections have a default disjointness constraint placed between them. However, such a disjointness constraint should be blocked, since any instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjLm5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">OpticNerve</a> is an instance of both <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rv0GdXpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SensoryNerve</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvWvJVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">CranialNerve</a>. By asserting <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQtVmpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">siblingDisjointExceptions</a> <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rv0GdXpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SensoryNerve</a> <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvWvJVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">CranialNerve</a>)</code>, we block the disjointness constraint between those two collections, without disturbing the constraints between each of those collections and all their other (sibling) instances of the parent collection <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwKTnSJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">OrganismPartType</a>. Sibling Disjoint Exceptions siblingDisjointExceptions Wikipedia Article URL (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rNv0nbm4TTjOp7yhmnzOyqg" class="cyc_term">wikipediaArticleURL</a> THING URL) means that in <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rtqXA6OC8QdiWC72DuLJdUw" class="cyc_term">Wikipedia_WebSite</a> THING is described by an article located at URL wikipediaArticleURL seeAlsoURI <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4riWVFR6HJSpaEaHrcWS3MSA" class="cyc_term">seeAlsoURI</a> <b>THING</b> <b>URI</b>)</code> means that a description of the resource identified by URI is likely to contain information pertinent to THING. This predicate is roughly equivalent to rdfs:seeAlso. See Also URI WaterPlatform-Subsurface water platform subsurface The collection of military water platforms meant to travel underwater. ModernNavalShip A specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVirIJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Ship</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLzdIpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MilitaryWatercraft</a>.
