Relations between concepts (and/or entities, events, and other things) vary depending on the criteria by which relations are defined or viewed. In the domain of research data management, different types of research generate different types of data and terminologies vary between practitioners and basic science researchers even within the same disciplinary domain. Interactions between datasets, between datasets and documentation, and between datasets and computing code can result in different types of relations.
