RDomain Taxonomy
RDomain does not create independent domain silos. Domains extend a shared semantic
substrate and are traversed through context-sensitive navigation over the same canonical
identity, relationship, temporal and evidence systems.
Foundational Stage Dependencies
| Stage | Responsibility | RDomain role |
|---|---|---|
| 02 | Universal Ontology | Shared semantic classes, predicates, constraints and versioned taxonomy. |
| 03 | Node Engine | Canonical addressable entities and stable identity across domains. |
| 04 | Relationship Engine | Typed, directional and contextual relationships across canonical entities. |
| 05 | State & Temporal Engine | Historical and current state, events, transitions and temporal validity. |
| 06 | Claim & Evidence Engine | Claims, support, contradiction, provenance, confidence and verification state. |
| 07 | RDomain Navigation | Context-sensitive traversal across reality domains without hard silos. |
Canonical RDomain Structure
Open Canonical RDomain Structure Workspace →
Domain Identity
Stable domain identifier, name, version, owner and lifecycle state.
Semantic Scope
Classes, predicates, constraints and allowed extensions.
Entity Profiles
Canonical node classes and identity-resolution rules.
Relationship Profiles
Allowed typed links, directionality, context and inverse semantics.
State / Temporal Profiles
Domain-specific state models built on the shared temporal substrate.
Evidence Profiles
Admissible source classes, provenance and verification requirements.
Traversal Profiles
Depth, allowed or blocked predicates, temporal and epistemic filters.
Extension Contracts
Additive, versioned domain extensions that do not replace common engines.
RDomain Governance Rules
| Shared semantics | Every semantic object references a valid ontology version. |
| Stable identity | Domains reuse canonical node identity rather than create private identity engines. |
| No silent history rewrite | State and relationship evolution remains versioned and auditable. |
| Explicit epistemics | Claims, evidence, contradiction and uncertainty remain separate and traceable. |
| Cross-domain traversal | Navigation uses explicit context and filters instead of hard domain isolation. |
| Controlled extension | New domain semantics extend the common model through versioned contracts. |
