DOI
• DOI (Digital Object Identifier): unique alphanumeric string assigned by a registration agency (the International DOI Foundation) to identify content and provide a persistent link to its location on the Internet. Unlike a conventional Web address, a DOI specifies not the location of an online object, but rather its content; a DOI is thus a "persistent" identifier, and remains associated with the object irrespective of changes in the object's Web address.
• DOIs also form a key component of certain reference-linking systems such as Crossref.
• Examples: 10.1088/2040-8978/18/6/065605
10.6087/kcse.82
10.1103/PhysRevB.66.085108
