Class Task

java.lang.Object

org.episteme.social.economics.Task

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Commented, ComprehensiveIdentification, Identified<Identification>, Named

Direct Known Subclasses:

OrganizationTask

public class Task
extends Object
implements ComprehensiveIdentification

Represents a transformation process where materials and human resources are converted into finished products or services.

A task can be subdivided into hierarchies of subtasks. Each task requires a set of resources and produces a set of resulting resources (products).

Even the most basic work requires some resources (e.g., scissors for hair cutting). In many cases, these resources are "recycled" or remain available after the task, in which case they should appear in both the input resources and output products sets.
