Aspects
- atelic-aspect
- a cumulative-reference process
for SPEL it is like signal processing,
at any point it is still processing.
perhaps for parallel processes
- cessative-aspect
- for ending process
for SPEL exiting process
for hardware description language falling edge
- completive-aspect
- completely and thoroughly finished
for SPEL finished with no errors
- continuative-aspect
- process started but not active
for SPEL idle processes
- delimitative-aspect
- temporary process
- frequentive-aspect
- repetitive process
for SPEL can be used for servers/daemons
- gnomic-aspect
- general truths
for SPEL defining functions
- habitual-aspect
- habitual process
for SPEL can be provided services or features
- inchoative-aspect
- begining of process
for SPEL loading process
for Hardware Description Layer signal rising edge
- imperfective-aspect
for SPEL a process which is ongoing
- any partial process
- momentane-aspect
- for things that happen suddenly or momentarily,
like power surges and lightning bolts.
for instance a clock-tick could be momentane and frequentive.
- perfective-aspect
- any whole process
for SPEL a process which has completed
- progressive-aspect
- for active process
for SPEL for active processes
- prospective-aspect
- for processes that happen after
for SPEL queued processes
- retrospective-aspect
- for processes that happen before
for SPEL prerequisite processes
- telic-aspect
- quantized process
for processes where any of the parts are not the whole,
only taken together is it the whole.
for SPEL this is processes that require sequential components of
a different kind.
