Abstract
A model for a noncontinuous spacetime is considered, which is based on a generalization of the manifold concept, known as d-space. As a cons equence of its construction, the model possesses a metric of Lorentzia n signature and a generalized form of Lorentz invariance. The model ma y be considered as defining a class of discrete spacetimes within the framework of the d-space representation of general relativity.
