Character (computing)

In computer and machine-based telecommunications terminology, a character is a unit of information that roughly corresponds to a grapheme, grapheme-like unit, or symbol, such as in an alphabet or syllabary in the written form of a natural language.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Character (computing)

Domain Name System

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical and distributed name service that provides a naming system for computers, services, and other resources on the Internet or other Internet Protocol (IP) networks.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Domain Name System

Dublin Core

Logo of DCMI, maintenance agency for Dublin Core Terms The Dublin Core vocabulary, also known as the Dublin Core Metadata Terms (DCMT), is a general purpose metadata vocabulary for describing resources of any type.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Dublin Core

Hypertext

Hypertext is text displayed on a computer display or other electronic devices with references (hyperlinks) to other text that the reader can immediately access.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Hypertext

Internet Engineering Task Force

The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is a standards organization for the Internet and is responsible for the technical standards that make up the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP). Uniform Resource Characteristic and Internet Engineering Task Force are History of the Internet.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Internet Engineering Task Force

Metadata (or metainformation) is "data that provides information about other data", but not the content of the data itself, such as the text of a message or the image itself.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Metadata

Persistent identifier

A persistent identifier (PI or PID) is a long-lasting reference to a document, file, web page, or other object.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Persistent identifier

Resource Description Framework

The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standard originally designed as a data model for metadata.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Resource Description Framework

Specification (technical standard)

A specification often refers to a set of documented requirements to be satisfied by a material, design, product, or service. Uniform Resource Characteristic and specification (technical standard) are technical specifications.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Specification (technical standard)

String (computer science)

In computer programming, a string is traditionally a sequence of characters, either as a literal constant or as some kind of variable.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and String (computer science)

Uniform Resource Identifier

A Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), formerly Universal Resource Identifier, is a unique sequence of characters that identifies an abstract or physical resource, such as resources on a webpage, mail address, phone number, books, real-world objects such as people and places, concepts.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Uniform Resource Identifier

Uniform Resource Name

RFC xxxx" because otherwise they get auto-converted by MediaWiki into hyperlinks to the IETF website, making the article a mess. Uniform Resource Characteristic and Uniform Resource Name are URI schemes.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Uniform Resource Name

URL

A uniform resource locator (URL), colloquially known as an address on the Web, is a reference to a resource that specifies its location on a computer network and a mechanism for retrieving it. Uniform Resource Characteristic and URL are URI schemes.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and URL

Web resource

A web resource is any identifiable resource (digital, physical, or abstract) present on or connected to the World Wide Web.

See Uniform Resource Characteristic and Web resource
