Description generation (PDg)
The one-sentence description above was generated by prompting gpt-5.1 with the predicate name and this instruction.
Instruction
Given a predicate that represents a relationship or action between entities, generate a one-sentence description explaining its meaning. # Instructions Focus on describing the relationship, not the entities themselves. # Response Format Begin the description with \' Indicates...\'
Input
Predicate: linkLayer
Generated description
Indicates a relationship where one entity is connected to another at the data link (Layer 2) level of a network stack, enabling direct frame-level communication between them.
