q is a determinable quality 
there is a measurement process p that has_output m
m has a value part that together with the units of the value of q at t.

p is a assay 

assay:
process and has_input some material entity
and has_output some information content entity 
and which is such that instances of this process type reliably generate outputs that describes the input.

a is a magnitude means a is a determinate quality particular inhering in some bearer b existing at a time t that can be represented/denoted by an information content entity e that has parts denoting a unit of measure, a number, and b. The unit of measure is an instance of the determinable quality. 

unit of measure is a quality, e.g. the length of a ruler.

a represents b means either a denotes b or a describes

describe:
a describes b means a is about b and a allows an inference of at least one quality of b

Example:

q = height of barry
p is the process using a tape measure extend across the longer part of barry and reading off the number at the far end.
v is that number
# dimension is height
unit of measure is inches

We have had a long discussion about denotes versus describes.</IAO_0000115>
        <IAO_0000116
            >This one is the one we are struggling with at the moment. The issue is what a measurement measures. On the one hand saying that it measures the quality would include it &quot;measuring&quot; the bearer = referring to the bearer in the measurement. However this makes comparisons of two different things not possible. On the other hand not having it inhere in the bearer, on the face of it, breaks the audit trail.

Werner suggests a solution based on &quot;Magnitudes&quot; a proposal for which we are awaiting details.</IAO_0000116>
