RDF
Resource Description Framework, a W3C semantic web standard.

RECURSION
Important logic principle for processing nested structures. Resources and processes are natural nested recursive structures and each process orchestrates its sub-processes through its multi-level schedule relation resource.

RECYCLE
One of the 10 main resource access types, determining resource recycling capabilities that include retiring, as well as purge and archiving (e.g. purge) behaviors.

RED
Background color used for modeling schedule resources. Red is the hottest primary color, and time-based resources (schedules) are the highest business priority resource archetype.

REFERENCE
One of the 10 main resource access types, determining resource referencing capabilities that include overview listing and reading (e.g. list, TOC, summary) behaviors.

REFERENCE MONITOR
The reference monitor is a DNAOS run-time service set responsible for ensuring that all references and accesses conform to corresponding defined entitlement and for logging and trackingResources access.

REFERENCE TYPE
Direct References are universal unique identifiers for the respective referenced Resources, while other references are Indirect (e.g. query).

REFINEMENT
Addition of details. Qualification.

REGISTRATION
A process to register users, visitors, administrators, partners, suppliers. etc. to membership, activities, and resources.

RELATION
resource type used to define and qualify an association from a subject Resource to an object Resource; relations have a type that defines the relationship, as well as source (e.g. Subject, From) and destination (e.g. Object, To) resources; the DNAOS default or pre-defined relations include. for example, access, schedule, and report relations.

REMMS
REMMS (Resource & EntitlementModeling, Management, and Sharing) standards proposal, also referred to as universal REMMS, are a DNAOS inspired set of standard specifications proposed to support information and knowledge sharing securely, universally. As entitlement is a type of relation between resources, REMMS specify compatibility for modeling, managing, and sharing information as resources linked by relations.

REPORT
Laid-out and formatted application resources reports, generated by a report services engine, from advanced XPath XQuery, SQL queries, as well as layout information.

RESOURCE
An identified and classified quality collection. Resource qualities can also define resource behavior. Resources are also any piece of identified and classified information. Anything or any information that anyone defines, including application resources, virtual profiles, datasets, data-structures; the resources, content and profiles, analyzed, processed, transformed and persisted by applications; distributed application resources in the DNAOS context; (e.g. systems, humans, content, relations, business, schedules, processes). Resources are commonly split between entities and relations.

RETIRE
One of the 10 main resource access types, determining resource retiring capabilities that include modification, as well as deletion (e.g. delete) behaviors.

RIGHT
Rights are granted with role assignments (access resources). See also Privileges.

RISK
Risk is a function of the likelihood or probability of threat-sources exercising potential resource vulnerabilities, as well as the related potential impacts on associated resources (e.g. systems, organizations). Risk should be managed.

RISK ASSESSESMENT
Risk assessment is a risk management operation that typically includes: resource characterization, threat and vulnerability identification, likelihood or probability determination, control and impact analysis, risk estimation, as well as recommendations and documentation.

RISK MANAGEMENT
Risk management assesses and mitigates risk, as well as evaluate and optimize risk assessment and mitigation.

RISK MITIGATION
Risk mitigation is a risk management operation that typically uses planning, research, and acknowledgment to optimize risk assumption, avoidance, limitation, and transference (e.g. accept, avoid, limit, and transfer).

ROLE
Relationquality defining the access rights and responsibilities (interaction) between resources (e.g. self or others). A basic knowledge archetype, typically modeled with a yellow background.

ROTATE
A basic modeling layout operation, available to DNAOS rich graphical SOA client applications and users, to selectively move and turn forward or backward around an axis, application resources, virtual profiles, and business processes. see also Auto-Layout and Zoom.

ROW
A logical grouping structure resource typically used in forms, as well as layout and formatting applications. Rows are often mapped to corresponding form, table, or panel rows. Rows typically contain cell resources.

RSS
A common news feed and blog protocol, which is progressively being replaced by the Atom protocol, which is the DNAOS built-in news feed and blog protocol. DNAOS can import and export RSS feeds.

RULE
Rules are typically used to express context-based policies. They are theoretically executable statements or instructions defining typically context-related conditions, rights, privileges, and responsibilities. Rules are also used in schema to define resource metadata. Because rules apply to resources that form context for the rules, they are also often referred to as context rules. Rules are used for many different purposes including access control, Dynamic Key Indicators (DKIs), page layout, report queries. DNAOS rules are executable context aware instructions, typically based on XPath standards. Many sophisticated queries can define rules often using XQuery and SQL languages. RuleML and SBVR are also rule languages.
