---++ GUID Requirements
|
|
|
|
The requirements for the GUID framework can be divided into two categories:
|
|
1. Generic infrastructure that supports assignment and resolution of identifiers for any domain.
|
|
2. Domain specific requirements for each domain, such as taxonomic names, concepts, specimens, collections.
|
|
|
|
In this page we present what the group believes are requirements for a GUID system supporting biodiversity informatics.
|
|
|
|
Domain specific requirements pages:
|
|
* [[GUIDRequirementsTaxonomy][Taxonomic names and concepts]]
|
|
* [[GUIDRequirementsSpecimens][Collections and specimens]]
|
|
* Other domains to be addressed (add yours here)
|
|
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
---+++ General Requirements
|
|
|
|
---+++++ R1. GUID must be persistent
|
|
|
|
The link between the identifier and the entity it identifies must be maintained indefinitely, regardless of changes in the entity location or ownership.
|
|
|
|
---+++++ R2. GUID must be actionable
|
|
|
|
The identifier must take the user to entity that it identifies, i.e., the user must be able retrieve data and metadata about an entity using its identifier.
|
|
|
|
---+++++ R3. GUID must be globally unique
|
|
|
|
A GUID resolves to a single entity (abstract or concrete) and is unique in the context of the system.
|
|
|
|
---+++++ R4. GUID identity digital objects
|
|
|
|
GUIDs identify digital representations of real world object, not the real objects themselves. For example, a GUID can represent a specimen catalog entry in a collection database, but not the physical entity.
|
|
|
|
---+++++ R5. GUID metadata infrastructure must be extensible
|
|
|
|
---+++++ R6. Intellectual Property Rights are defined in the metadata
|
|
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
---++++ Requirements Under Discussion
|
|
|
|
---+++++ Data (and metadata?) are persistent
