Ten years and a million links: building a global taxonomic library connecting persistent identifiers for names, publications and people [PDF]

open access: yesBiodiversity 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 ...

On Constructing Persistent Identifiers with Persistent Resolution Targets [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals 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

Can Persistent Identifiers Be Cool?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Curation, 2013
The fast growth of scientific and non-scientific digital data, as well as the proliferation of new types of digital content, has led – among many other things – to a lot of innovative work on the concept of the identifier.

What Makes Persistent Identifiers Persistent? [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN 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 ...

Distributed Persistent Identifiers System Design

open access: yesData Science Journal, 2017
The need to identify both digital and physical objects is ubiquitous in our society. Past and present persistent identifier (PID) systems, of which there is a great variety in terms of technical and social implementation, have evolved with the advent of ...

A System for Distributed Minting and Management of Persistent Identifiers

open access: yesInternational 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.

Community next steps for making globally unique identifiers work for biocollections data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Biodiversity data is being digitized and made available online at a rapidly increasing rate but current practices typically do not preserve linkages between these data, which impedes interoperation, provenance tracking, and assembly of larger datasets ...

Towards Globally Unique Identification of Physical Samples: Governance and Technical Implementation of the IGSN Global Sample Number

open access: yesData Science Journal, 2021
Persistent unique identifiers (PID) are a critical element in digital research data infrastructure to unambiguously identify, locate, and cite digital representations of a growing range of entities – publications, data, instruments, organizations ...
