 We adopt a very generic form of collection for the purpose, namely an abstract data types consisting of <strong>set of key-value pairs</strong>, often referred to as a <strong>map</strong>. This provides a generic indexing structure that can be used to model commonly used data structures, including associative lists (also known as "dictionaries" or maps in some programming languages), relational tables, ordered lists, and more (the specification of such specialized structures in terms of key-value pairs is out of the scope of this document).<p/>
 
-Keys and values used in collections are either literals, or entities themselves. This allows expressing nested collections, that is, collections whose values include entities of type collection.<p/>
