Incremental informational content: relative to constraint $C'$, and given event $s'$, a situation $s$ carries the information that there is a situation of type $S''$if and only if:

1. There is a constraint $C'$ holding between the type that results from the conjunction of $S$ and $S'$, and the type $S''$ ($C=[S\ S'\Rightarrow S'']$).

2. The anchoring event $s'$ is of type $S'$.

3. The situation $s$ is of type $S$.
