  • Persistent identifier

    A persistent unique identifier (PID) is an alphanumeric string that  provides an unambiguous and lasting identification of a digital or  physical object (e.g., Crossref DOI for a publication, DataCite DOI for  data, SWHID for code or software, ORCID for a contributor, ROR for an  institution). Interoperable and machine-readable, these identifiers make  it easier to exchange information between different information  systems.
