+Contract storage model.
+
+# Summary
+Key-value storage format:
+ - snapshotEpoch -> int
+   current epoch
+ - snapshotBlock -> int
+   block which "ticked" the current epoch
+ - snapshotCount -> int
+    number of stored network maps including current one
+ - snapshot_<ID> -> std.Serialize([]storageNode)
+    network map by snapshot ID
+ - snapshotCurrent -> int
+    ID of the snapshot representing current network map
+ - candidate<public_key> -> std.Serialize(netmapNode)
+   information about the particular network map candidate
+ - containerScriptHash -> 20-byte script hash
+   Container contract reference
+ - balanceScriptHash -> 20-byte script hash
+   Balance contract reference
+ - notary -> bool
+   is notary mode disabled
+ - innerring -> []interop.PublicKey
+   public keys of the Inner Ring members
+ - config<name> -> []byte
+   value of the particular NeoFS network parameter
+
+# Setting
+Contract can be deployed in notary and notary-disabled mode. In notary-disable
+mode contract stores the Inner Ring members.
+
+To handle some events, the contract refers to other contracts.
+
+# Epoch
+Contract stores the current (last) NeoFS timestamp for the network within which
+the contract is deployed.
+
+# Network maps
+Contract records set of network parties representing the network map. Current
+network map is updated on each epoch tick. Contract also holds limited number
+of previous network maps (SNAPSHOT_LIMIT). Timestamped network maps are
+called snapshots. Snapshots are identified by the numerical ring [0:SNAPSHOT_LIMIT).
+
+# Network map candidates
+Contract stores information about the network parties which were requested
+in the network map.
+
+# Network configuration
+Contract stores NeoFS network configuration declared in the NeoFS API protocol.
