3.2.3 Database of Sectional Units

Finally, each structural unit (including graphics and formulas) will be entered into a database, indexed (at least) by the annotations described above. By this means, collections of such document fragments matching various search criteria can be found. Reassembling these pieces allows the construction of a wide variety of quick reference guides or other distillations of material, whether we had planned them in advance or not.
