Representation

The Representation of a resource is a tangible asset which provides a real embodiment of the abstract URI referenced resource.

In NetKernel a Representation is a container which holds metadata associated with a resource and contains one or more Aspects (concrete object model instances). A Representation is the object which is returned in the response to a URI request.
