In this paper we characterize foams and tetrahedral structures in a unified way, by a simplified representation of both that conserves the system topology. The paper presents a workflow for an automated characterization of the topology of the void space, using a partition of the void space into polyhedral cells connected by windows. This characterization serves as the basic input for the Edwards entropic formalism that deals with the statistical characterization of configurational disorder in granular aggregates and argued to work for foams. The Edwards formalism is introduced and simplified expectation values are calculated.
