Name:
_audit.block_DOI

Alias:
_audit_block_DOI

Definition:

   
    The digital object identifier (DOI) registered to identify
    the data set publication represented by the current
    data block. This can be used as a unique identifier for
    the data block so long as the code used is a valid DOI
    (i.e. begins with a valid publisher prefix assigned by a
    Registration Agency and a suffix guaranteed to be unique
    by the publisher) and has had its metadata deposited
    with a DOI Registration Agency.

    A DOI is a unique character string identifying any
    object of intellectual property. It provides a
    persistent identifier for an object on a digital network
    and permits the association of related current data in a
    structured extensible way. A DOI is an implementation
    of the Internet concepts of Uniform Resource Name and
    Uniform Resource Locator managed according to the
    specifications of the International DOI Foundation
    (see https://www.doi.org/).
