A closure is like a bubble in JavaScript in that it acts like a separate self-contained global scope, and can contain variables, functions, and even entire JavaScript frameworks like jQuery. The viewer onto the unified ontology intenernally maintains a closure for each node, and many of these nodes have a visible interface aspect in the form of an associated DOM element in the page. The unified ontology viewer also allows each node to be persistent by storing them in a peer-to-peer semantic network.
