This paper focusses on the behavioural constraints of the IFO2 model, an extension of the semantic model IFO defined by S. Abiteboul and R. Hull [1], IFO2 provides a “whole-event” approach for the dynamic modelling of applications (any fact is modelled as an event). As regards the behavioural conditions constraining event triggering, IFO2 also provides an event approach, based on traces. In fact, operators are proposed to manipulate traces and can be combined in order to express varied behavioural conditions.
