This RM4TM defines an abstract structure, called a "topic map graph", in terms of which all kinds of topic maps can be uniformly interpreted, regardless of their governing TM Applications, and regardless of the TM Application-defined interchange syntaxes in which they may be representable.
The topic map graph (TMG) is a structure into which any topic map can be interpreted, without regard to its governing TM Application or the syntax in which it is represented. A TMG represents all the subjects, whether expressed or implied, in a given topic map. This section defines the rules to be followed in constructing a TMG for a topic map.
