Abstract
Transformations of digital records are used as lowest level inputs to a tree data structure having a root in a core system and having nodes computed as digital combinations of child node values. A combination of root values is published in a permanent medium. Signature vectors are associated with the digital records and have parameters that enable recomputation upward through the tree data structure to either a current root value or to the published value. Recomputation yields the same value only if a candidate digital record is an exact version of the original digital record included in the original computation of the value.
