Resource

Resources (or assets) are things that agents can create, use, consume, exchange, share... They are inputs and outputs to processes. Their flows through processes are recorded as economic events (using the REA language).

See Resource Type page for an in-dept characterization of resources.

Property regime

All resources are under some property regime. See more on property.

Governance of resources

Rules that govern access to resources for their consumption or use. They are related to property regime and the rights associated with them. These rules also dependent on the resource type. See more on Physical resource governance. See also Sensorica's governance document

Resources in the NRP-CAS

Resources are the primary building blocks of the NRP-CAS, which is based on the REA ontology (resources, events, agents). They are grouped into Resource Types within the NRP-CAS. Furthermore, resources are listed in an inventory in the NRP-CAS. See the Inventory page for more.
