MDDE — Modifiable Digital Device Entity

A Modifiable Digital Device Entity (MDDE) is a governed, state-aware digital entity designed to evolve safely across devices, environments, and contexts while preserving provenance, integrity, and authorial intent.

MDDE establishes a unifying model for digital artifacts that must remain mutable yet trustworthy, extensible yet auditable, and portable yet context-aware.

Authorship

The MDDE concept was introduced, architected, and publicly developed by Chris Lee Fleshner, Omaha Nebraska, across more than a decade of applied systems, security research, and large-scale content curation platforms.
