In normal usage, within computer architecture, a domain is a span of authority or trust, or in the case of DNS, a subtree of name space. Linden has proposed splitting the current flat system into an agent domain, and a region domain, and then, multiple agent and region domains. (in the 2008 picture, we see SecondLife Agents, XYZ Employees, XYZ land, and LindenMainland, as examples of domains, as well as a third domain, marked as central utilities.
