DOI
Digital Object Identifier
The DOI system provides an actionable, persistent identifier for digital objects. PubID parses DOI names — including NIST's DOI-based standard designations such as "doi:10.6028/NIST.SP.800-53r5" — as identifiers alongside the SDO schemes.

Structured elements that make up a DOI identifier:
Scheme
EnumerationThe "doi:" scheme token
doi:
Case-insensitive on parse (DOI: accepted); rendered lowercase
e.g.
doi:Prefix
StringThe registrant prefix, always beginning 10.
10.{NNNN} — 4+ digits naming the registrant
e.g.
:prefix10.6028Suffix
StringThe registrant's opaque resource suffix
Any string; SDO designations use dotted series (NIST.SP.800-53r5)
e.g.
:suffixNIST.2022-04-15.001PubID Algebra 1
Relationships between DOI identifiers:
| Relation | Description | Syntax | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| URL form | The resolver URL parses and renders as the canonical DOI name | doi.org/10.{prefix}/{suffix} | https://doi.org/10.1000/182 |
