Technologies

The Referent Tracking System (RTS) is an implementation of the Referent Tracking paradigm in which each real world entity is assigned its own unique ID. The application is designed to be able to store in a database - called here a 'repository'- references to
  • individual entities in reality,
  • the relationships that obtain between these entities, and
  • the generic classes the individual entities belong to.
