On Constructing Persistent Identifiers with Persistent Resolution Targets [PDF]
Annals of computer science and information systems, 2016 Persistent Identifiers (PID) are the foundation referencing digital assets in scientific publications, books, and digital repositories. In its realization, PIDs contain metadata and resolving targets in form of URLs that point to data sets located on the

Ten years and a million links: building a global taxonomic library connecting persistent identifiers for names, publications and people [PDF]
Biodiversity Data Journal, 2023 A major gap in the biodiversity knowledge graph is a connection between taxonomic names and the taxonomic literature. While both names and publications often have persistent identifiers (PIDs), such as Life Science Identifiers (LSIDs) or Digital Object ...

Identifiers for the 21st century: How to design, provision, and reuse persistent identifiers to maximize utility and impact of life science data. [PDF]
PLoS Biol, 2017 In many disciplines, data is highly decentralized across thousands of online databases (repositories, registries, and knowledgebases). Wringing value from such databases depends on the discipline of data science and on the humble bricks and mortar that ...

A System for Distributed Minting and Management of Persistent Identifiers
International Journal of Digital Curation, 2015 Minting persistent identifiers and managing their metadata is typically governed by a single organization. Such a single point of failure poses a risk to longevity and long-term preservation of identifiers.

What Makes Persistent Identifiers Persistent? [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2010 This essay sketches technical and non-technical issues around persistent identifiers (henceforth PIs) in a manner which makes no attempt to be complete. Our goal is to rescue the core notions from the obscurity which detail and completeness burdens them ...
