Primes¶
- Frame Problem
- The frame is always relative to a representation and a purpose — the same physical change has a tight frame for an engineer and a broad one for an accountant — so "the consequences" of an action are never objectively given.
This sourceOriginal formulation of the frame problem in the situation calculus — which fluents change and which persist when an action is applied.

The paper says the result of an action is defined only in representations of the world, not in the world itself, which backs 'consequences are not objectively given'; frame-relativity to purpose is not stated.
“From this we see that result(p,σ,s) should not be regarded as being defined in the world itself, but only in certain representations of the world;”
- The frame is always relative to a representation and a purpose — the same physical change has a tight frame for an engineer and a broad one for an accountant — so "the consequences" of an action are never objectively given.
Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
