Period

A time period defined by a start and end date/time.

Definition

If the start element is missing, the start of the period is not known. If the end element is missing, it means that the period is ongoing. Alternatively, this may be represented by having an explicit end in the future, in which case this means the period is expected/planned to end at the specified time.
