What is a code?

For SKYDB Definitions, a "code" is a meaning for something, usually an information asset or a property of an information asset.

A code is created using one of these code types:

a) as standard meaning (a structured, widely accepted definition strictly defined only by SKYDB Definitions); or

b) as compound meaning (an evolving definition adjustable by any user); or

c) as reaction mask process (an evolving matching technique adjustable by any user).

Codes are a synonym for taxonomies, vocabularies, classes, open standards, definitions, meanings. Every issued code receives a SDC number.
