Information Asset |
An Information Asset represents anything that can be communicated or memorized by an Agent to produce and react to Outcome Events. An Information Asset is either an Information Entity or an Information Property. The difference lies in their relationship to change and to time. Information Entity(ies) can change over time and have a lifeycle while Information Propertys are immutable characteristics. |
Information Block |
An Information Block is an Asset Block involved in the description of information. Information Blocks range from Information Assets to Information Domains. They are packaged in Information Dictionary(ies) and managed in Data Catalogs. |
Information Domain |
An Information Domain is a family of Information Entity(ies) which constitutes a unit a knowlege required by an Agent to operate during Behavior execution. |
Information Element |
An Information Element is an Element that represents some memorized information, either an Information Asset or an Information Asset Relationship, produced and/or consumed by Operating Assets. |
Information Entity |
An Information Entity is an Information Asset that is not fundamentally defined by its attributes, but rather by its continuity. An Information Entity evolves over time and has states. For instance a person is an Information Entity. Employe is a state of a person. An Information Entity has relationships to other Information Entitys and can have Information Propertys.

Information Map |
An Information Map is a Operating Property Map that is the top level grouping of Information Domains. Information Maps are used to provide navigationtop level entry points for Information Dictionary(ies) and to scope data management initiatives at the level of portfolio management ( Data Catalog), at the project level or at the Enterprise level (Enterprise Concept Map). |
Information Property |
An Information Property is an Information Asset that represents a characteristic (Property) of an Information Entity. An Information Property is fundamentally defined by its value. It doesn't evolve over time and is thereby immutable. Examples: . Address. . Customer Name. . Amounts, |
