	<li>An <code>AtomicProcess</code> is directly invocable, has not
	  sub-processes, and executed in a single step.</li>
	
	<li>A <code>SimpleProcess</code> is not invocable (not
	  associated with a grounding). Its executed in a single
	  step. Used as an element of abstraction. </li>

	<li>A <code>CompositeProcess</code> is decomposable into other
	  process using control constructs. It is <code>composedOf</code>
	  a <code>ControlConstruct</code> which, in turn, has a
	  <code>components</code> property that indicates the ordering and
	  conditional execution of the sub-processes. </li>
