 In this paper we propose an interface for querying and representing the execution resources within a system, queurying the relative affinity metric between those execution resources, and then using those execution resources to allocate memory and execute work with affinity to the underlying hardware. The interface described in this paper builds on the existing interface for executors and execution contexts defined in the executors proposal [[22]][p0443r4].
 
+### Terminology
+
+An **execution agent** executes work, typically implemented by a *callable*, 
+on an **execution resource** of a given **execution architecture**. 
+An **execution context** manages a set of execution agents on an 
+execution resource.
+An **executor** submits work to an execution context.
+More that one executor may submit work to an execution context.
+More than on execution context may manage execution agents
+on an execution resource.
+
+> [*Note:* The execution context terminology used here
+and in the Networking TS [[33]][networking-ts] deviate from the 
+traditional *context of execution* usage that refers
+to the state of a single executing callable; *e.g.*,
+program counter, registers, stack frame. *--end note*]
+
+The **concurrency** of an execution resource is the maximum number 
+of execution agents that could make concurrent forward progress 
+on that execution resource.

 ### Execution resources
 
 An `execution_resource` is a lightweight structure which acts as an identifier to particular piece of hardware within a system. It can be queried for whether it can allocate memory via `can_place_memory`, whether it can execute work via `can_place_agents`, and for its name via `name`. An `execution_resource` can also represent other `execution_resource`s. We call these *members of* that `execution_resource`, and can be queried via `resources`. Additionally the `execution_resource` which another is a *member of* can be queried vis `member_of`. An `execution_resource` can also be queried for the concurrency it can provide, the total number of *threads of execution* supported by that *execution_resource*, and all resources it represents.
