The class to be used to define schemas of agent actions in an ontology. Note that an AgentActionSchema should also be a ConceptSchema, but this inheritance relation is cut as Java does not support multiple inheritance. As a consequence in practice it will not be possible to define e.g. a ConceptSchema with a slot whose value must be instances of a certain type of agent-action even if in theory this should be possible as a ConceptSchema can have slots of type term and an agent-action is a concept and therefore a term.
