            <title>Data collections with restrictions on some of their potential usages</title>
            <description><![CDATA[Introduction of a mechanism to state specific restrictions associated with certain data collections. These restrictions include restricted licenses (which for example may preclude the use of a data collection by commercial organisations) and non-stable identifiers (which for example may differ for a specific record between releases or versions of a data collection). The introduction of this system will enable us to publish data collections that were previously not compliant with the Registry's requirements. However, although this will ensure provision of URIs for records provided by those data collections, the level of support and services (such as the resolution one) may be affected. We welcome feedback on this recent development, and suggestions for its future refinement.]]></description>

            <title>Identifiers.org and MIRIAM Registry: community resources to provide persistent identification</title>

In this paper, we describe the <a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/miriam/" title="MIRIAM Registry">MIRIAM Registry</a>, which provides unique, perennial and location-independent identifiers for data used in the biomedical domain. We also introduce the new <a href="http://identifiers.org" title="Identifiers.org">Identifiers.org</a> service that is built upon the information stored in the Registry and which provides directly resolvable identifiers, in the form of Uniform Resource Locators (URLs). The flexibility of the identification scheme and resolving system allows its use in many different fields, where unambiguous and perennial identification of data entities are necessary.]]></description>
