Agente
Agent · https://publicschema.org/Agent
Una entidad capaz de actuar en un proceso de prestación pública: una persona, una organización o un sistema de software. Agent es el supertipo compartido de los actores que ejecutan, publican, evalúan, deciden o realizan. Las referencias del lado del actor como performed_by, evaluator y publisher aceptan cualquier Agent, lo que permite al esquema nombrar a la parte responsable, ya sea una persona con nombre, un organismo administrativo o un programa informático. Agent es distinto de Party, que agrupa a las entidades que reciben servicios (Person y Group). Person es el único concepto que pertenece a ambas jerarquías: una persona puede tanto recibir servicios como ejecutarlos.

No mapped delivery system carries an Agent supertype directly. The convergence case comes from standards bodies: W3C PROV-O, FOAF, schema.org, and FHIR all split the actor role across persons, organizations, and (in PROV and FHIR) software or devices. Agent gives those actor-side references a single honest range in the schema so that performed_by, evaluator, and publisher no longer have to sit on Party, which is reserved for receivers of services.
| Norma | Equivalente | Correspondencia |
|---|---|---|
| PROV-O | Agent | exact |
| W3C PROV-O prov:Agent is the direct equivalent: an entity that bears some form of responsibility for an activity. PROV's subtypes prov:Person, prov:Organization, and prov:SoftwareAgent align one-to-one with ours. | ||
| FOAF | Agent | exact |
| foaf:Agent is the canonical broad supertype for persons, organisations, and software. Our Agent hierarchy matches FOAF's structure. | ||
| schema.org | Person and Organization (sibling pattern) | |
| schema.org has no single Agent supertype; instead Person and Organization are sibling subtypes of Thing, and properties that accept either name both in their range. Our Agent captures the same intent under a named abstract. | ||
| FHIR R4 | Practitioner, Organization, Device (actor split) | |
| FHIR splits actors across Practitioner, Organization, and Device (plus PractitionerRole for role-qualified assignments). Our Agent is the supertype that covers the same ground; PractitionerRole-style reification is deferred. | ||
