Introduction

This page describes a Higgins Entity.

Definition

Higgins uses the Identity Gang definition of Entity with the addition of "concept":

Entity
Person, thing, juridical entity, concept, animal or anything with separate existence. [from wikipedia (see entity), JacoA]

Note: In Higgins an Entity is a non-modeled concept. Each of potentially many distinct, contextualized digital representations of an Entity exist simultaneously. Each is called a I-Node.
