Term requested by OBI.

Tree as a set of linked nodes. (such as here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_data_structure\ ).

Comments by Melanie: Tree would probably be a child of the graph term proposed in the tracker item https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1976410&group_id=177891&atid=886178 Proposed definition: label: tree data structure (disambiguation with forest tree) a tree data structure is an acyclic connected graph. It is a widely-used data structure that emulates a hierarchical tree structure with a set of linked nodes. Each node has a set of zero or more children nodes, and at most one parent node. definition source: adapted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_data_structure Related OBI tracker: https://sourceforge.net/p/obi/obi-terms/93/

Jie, can you go ahead and add this? For the moment it can be added as a subclass of information content entity.

There should be a better story about things whose essential characteristics are their form rather than their aboutness. WIP
