DOI Update 2001
doi>
“DOI commercial implementations”
• Persistent identification – Not just a location – Permanent, trackable, name– Stays the same if ownership, location, control changes– No need to update customers if location changes
• Can incorporate existing identifiers– Standard e.g. ISBN, ISSN, ISMN, SICI, ISRC– Non-standard / public e.g. PII– Private e.g. workflow, internal production – Assigned by the publisher – or on his behalf
• Can integrate with existing internal and external systems– Sales, royalty, stock, analysis, etc – Web sites, etc.
Features and benefits of DOI doi>
• Automated link from DOI to any (and multiple) data – e.g. Multiple locations; purchase options; additional info;
access control • See DOI-EB for a demonstration
– controlled globally by the publisher. – can be used globally by an intermediary, customer, etc.– No other system can do this
• Build your own custom features: entirely extensible architecture
• Generic applicability; any form of intellectual property, any granularity (text, music, audio..)– ensure interoperability
• Uses existing standards; ensures long term use
Features and benefits of DOI doi>
• Promotes use of material in a legal, controllable, manner
• Proven, implemented, real system in use now • Proven defence against new entrants
– The best defence: better features, better services, by legitimate routes -
• Demonstrated unique additional features– Multiple resolution; See DOI-EB work
• Low risk, low cost, standard solution– Not a proprietary system; available at low cost– controlled by neutral, not-for-profit Foundation with single aim.– Built on open standards; allows use of existing standards– Comprehensive effort reduces risk of "dead-end": Asia as well as
EU, US; multimedia e.g. text, music, software

Any form of identifier
NUMBERING
DESCRIPTION
<indecs> framework:DOI can describe any form of intellectual property, at any level of granularity
ACTION
Handle resolution allows a DOI to link to any and multiple piecesof current data
doi>extensible
• Coordinated work to support efficient operation: – Governance– Refine operational rules– Development of standards for application building– Development of additional features, tools
• Promotion and publicity to ensure deployment and avoid fragmentation
• Work with other activities to prevent conflicts and promote efficiency– Standards bodies, consortia, etc (w3C, IETF, OEBF,
MPEG, ISO, SIIA, XML, XrML, etc. )
doi>What more is needed now?
Membership support to provide finance for the work
• Membership grew consistently to 2001; – renewed effort now necessary to complete work
• membership supports development as operating
federation gradually takes over• basis of business model• proven model in other sectors (Visa, ISBN, EAN/UPC);
community invests now to get benefit for all • Business model demonstrated as sustainable:
– “Deployment” paper– financial model for scenario building (RA Working
Group)
doi>What is needed now?
• Ensure the DOI is widely implemented – Underpinning of consistent rules, infrastructure, and wide uptake
• Ensure content community sets standards – Technology standards are not enough (Napster)– Strong lead by publishing industry - text as the lead carrier, but supports audio,
video, etc– No other existing forum is doing this: W3C, OEBF, MPEG21 etc. all looking at
parts• Common community platform:
– DOI results from extensive work by AAP, IPA, STM (1995+) • IDF has strong lead, recognised position, and support.
– Build on what has been achieved • Promote collaboration
– Content and technology communities are represented– interoperate with others; reduce costs, prevent mistakes
• Facilitate building of specific added-value services.
Why support IDF? doi>
• Cost-effective access to digital commerce expertise:– Membership cost is equivalent to 2-3 days per month of one consultant
(even at highest membership level)– Detailed monthly briefings
• Preferential access to business opportunities: – IDF makes connections between members and potential applications:
explore at low risk possible business opportunities– Early access to results of prototypes, plans– Shared ownership of IDF output (data dictionaries, future
developments) • Share cost of development of prototypes:
– Costs can be shared by participants rather than by one company• Influence the course of the IDF:
– participate in working groups, annual meeting, prototypes, board– share in use of resulting technologies
• The benefits of standards: reduced risk, increased speed.
Benefits of supporting IDF doi>
• International DOI Foundation– Not-for-profit communal effort; paid membership support– Members own and control DOI effort
• Open to all interested parties• Governance by board elected from members• Membership fees:
– $30,000 per annum – $10,000 for small /not-for-profit members– [$5000 per annum for non-member affiliates]
• Membership support will enable us to put self-funding operating federation in place
• www.doi.org
How to support IDF doi>
• Provide a simple one-stop DOI solution for a community• An additional business opportunity for some members• Build on the features and acceptance of the system
– build on existing services or offer new services– management of content, management of metadata, etc.
• RAs may build as little or as much as they wish on this– simple assignment, through to a wide range of services
• RAs determine their own fate: – IDF provides federal structure for infrastructure, predictable costs and
governance model – open market structure for applications
• Business opportunity is a shared risk: – DOI service supported by multiple RAs and multiple applications– Shared costs of the infrastructure– common infrastructure encourages common added-value tools
Registration Agencies doi>
Information Identification - IPA/STM ; Uniform File Identifiers - AAP (1995)• “..need to unify in one scheme music, audiovisual, document management, internet engineering, digital libraries, copyright registration and object based
software”• “..maximise utility of digital objects; enable core interoperability; enable integration of disparate sourced data; ability to trace ownership to manage rights”• requirements:
– protect legacy investments– enable interoperability– provide link between digital and physical– maintain privacy of users– have persistence– standard syntax– global scalability– global uniqueness– global meaning
doi>
DOI delivers all this
A consistent call by the publishing industry
