In philosophy, identity is whatever makes an entity definable and recognizable, in terms of possessing a set of qualities or characteristics that distinguish it from entities of a different type. Or, in layman's terms, identity is whatever makes stuff the same or different.
The Representative Theory of Perception, also known as Indirect realism and epistemological dualism, is a philosophical concept. It states that we do not (and can not) perceive the external world directly; instead we know only our ideas or interpretations of objects in the world. However, an indirect realist believes our ideas come from sense data of a real, material, external world (unlike idealists). The doctrine states that in any act of perception, the immediate (direct) object of perception is only a sense-datum that represents an external object.
This immediately raises a question: How well do sense-data represent external objects, properties, and events? Indirect realism creates deep epistemological problems, such as solipsism and the problem of the external world. Nonetheless, Indirect realism has been popular in the history of philosophy and has been developed by many philosophers including Bertrand Russell, Spinoza, Thomas Reid, René Descartes, and John Locke.

an identity is specific to the individual. Your identity is uniquely yours. Identity is a function of your own existence. Representation is only the presentation of an identity.

I hope you are talking about people.
Identity is the true self that is really known only to you. Representation is the created self to intergrate into society with more ease. Indentity is relfected to a good degree in a confident person. Not so much in a insecure individual.

A software interrupt is when a software counter or timer reaches its activating value which could be zero for a countdown timer or some value for a counter. A hardware interrupt is an interrupt from an external source such as someone pressing a reset button, or a movement sensor being triggered, or a switch on a door being activated.

Identity is 'being' beyond representations. Your name, your perceptions, your physical body, your actions and history, your thoughts, your feelings...You identify with these, and they are part of your identity, but your true identity is formless and beyond the characteristics that represent you...

When an identity is isomorphic to its representation, the two are equivalent.

You can represent a company, you can't BE a company. That is not who you are. Your identity is who you are.
