OrganizationOfPeopleOnly organization of people DB pedia OWL class DBPediaOWLClass A collection of collections. Each instance of this collection is a collection that corresponds to one of the classes in the DBPedia ontology. musical performance agent type by genre The collection of collections of performers and bands who play a certain type of music. Each instance of this collection is a collection of musical performers or bands that play a certain genre of music. Specifically, for every instance, PERFORMER, of an instance of this collection (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwWtTZH8AEdaAAAABAjVgzA" class="cyc_term">styleOfArtist</a> PERFORMER GENRE) holds for some GENRE that is an instance of #$MusicalGenreType. And for each instance, PERFORMER-TYPE, of this collection every instance of PERFORMER-TYPE is related via <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwWtTZH8AEdaAAAABAjVgzA" class="cyc_term">styleOfArtist</a> assertions to the same GENRE MusicalPerformanceAgentTypeByGenre A <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViAypwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">TaxonomicSlot</a> that relates a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjl_ZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SetOrCollection</a> (q.v.) to a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rv93EfJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SetOrCollectionType</a> (q.v.) that "covers" it, i.e. the union of all of the latter's elements (which are themselves sets or collections) includes all of the former's elements. (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjVYJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">covering</a> SETORCOL COVER) means that COVER is a covering of SETORCOL: the elements of COVER are themselves mathematical sets or collections, and every element of SETORCOL is an element of at least one of the elements of COVER. For example, the Linnaean taxonomy of types of living things (Dog, Mammal, Chordate, Fungus, etc.) is a covering of the set of all animals alive today, as every animal alive today is a member of one or more of the Linnaean categories. Note that COVER may contain "extra" elements that are not members of SETORCOL. For example, the union of all the Linnaean categories (see <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjf5JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">OrganismClassificationType</a>) is actually much larger than the set of animals alive today, encompassing as it does plants, extinct animal species, etc. In order to express an assertion about covering, one need not create a new constant from scratch to play the role of COVER if such a constant doesn't already exist. Instead, using the function <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwMTOWpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">TheCovering</a> (q.v.), one can specify a covering by enumerating its elements.
