PropertyValue

Extensible key-value-unit triple. PropertyValues are the primary extension mechanism of ProcessCore. They can be attached through additionalProperty for cross-cutting metadata, or through dedicated relationships such as parameterValue when the host type already defines a more specific role.

Schema.org type: schema.org/PropertyValue

Decoration subtypes: - ISA: ParameterValue, CharacteristicValue, FactorValue, Component - Workflow Run: Workflow Input, Prefix, Position
