Semantic Node is a computing node that handles requests into Semantic Contracts.

The source code of a Semantic Node will be open. It is planned that this procedure could be implemented on both, the server and desktop platforms, as well as mobile devices.

Semantic Nodes are connected to form a network, where Semantic Contracts are published. A network that consists of Semantic Nodes is called Semantic Domain.

The owner of a Semantic Node is a participant of the network, who runs the Semantic Node program on his or her equipment. Rewards for execution of requests to Semantic Nodes, transaction archive keeping, and storage of Semantic Contract’s code are owners’ motivation to participate.

The reward is paid in units called DYNAMO, which is an analogue to gas in the Ethereum network.
