 +
 +===== Discussion =====
 +
 +Structure defines the form, organization, permitted fields, relationships, and constraints governing classes of data. Structure allows systems to determine whether a Data Structure Instance conforms to a Data Structure Definition.
 +
 +Structure remains distinct from data values. It also remains distinct from semantics. A structure may identify a field named currency, but the field's meaning, authority, permitted value set, and interpretation require additional semantic and governance context.

 +//formal organization and constraint model governing a class of data//
 +
 +===== Source =====
 +
 +Informed by SIP-RA separation of data and structure; adapted from FX Demo Reference Architecture material on Data Structure Definition, Common Data Type, Topic Framework, and Data Structure Framework.
 +
 +===== Note =====
 +
 +Structure does not by itself define all semantic meaning or interpretation logic.
 +
 +===== Example =====
 +
 +A Data Structure Definition for a cash-flow obligation may identify required fields such as transaction identifier, payment date, currency, amount, payer, receiver, and provenance reference.
