DOCUMENTATION
Institutions connected by a canonical identity.
The ACPapers present the protocol by knowledge area.

Knowledge areas
Each volume describes what the protocol delivers for its area.

Canonical Identity
A permanent identity for the same asset, across its different occurrences.
Identity & Evolution
The identity remains while states and events evolve over time.
Governance
Coordination between institutions and authorities in recognizing and qualifying changes.
Security Principles
Principles of integrity, confidentiality and record protection.
RWAReal-World Asset Tokenization
Canonical identity as the basis for the digital representation of real assets.
Official vocabulary
ACIDN — Canonical Identity Number. ACIDN allows the same asset to keep a canonical identity across different files, formats and systems, provided its identity data has been correctly identified and validated.
First pass through the AlternatingCurrent.
Same asset; the document evolved.
A canonical record of this asset already exists.
Review pending.
Identity not located or document illegible.
- ACIDENTITY — Generates identity.
- ACCONNECT — Connects.
- ACEVOLUTION — Preserves evolution.
- 1. ACFAST — prepares — Identical copies and file sorting, without reading content.
- 2. Universal Engine — reads and relates — Documents with the same content and similar documents.
- 3. Canonical Engine — verifies and decides — ACIDN identity and the UNI, DUP, PAR, QTN and INL responses, with the asset timeline.
- 4. ACORACLE — Canonical Identity Oracle — The bridge that connects the AC network to institutions: they recognize the same asset and query responses, without exchanging source data.
