DOI Scheme for Magazines /tipppo-yyyy t = magazine title ID i = issue number (1-9,x,y,z) ppp = page number o = object type (abstract, full-text PDF, full-text HTML, full-text SGML) yyyy = year of publication

Magazine Examples /s3026s-1998 Software, third issue, page 26, SGML, /s4032a-1997 Software, fourth issue, page 32, abstract, 1997

DOI Scheme for Transactions /tppppo-yyyy t = transactions title ID pppp = page number o = object type (abstract, full-text PDF, full-text HTML, full-text SGML) yyyy = year of publication

Transactions Example /e0252p-1998 Trans. On Software Engineering, page 252, PDF, 1998 l Transactions pages are numbered sequentially throughout the year l Uses 4-digit page number instead of 1-character issue number + 3-digit page number

DOI Scheme for Proceedings /cccc cccc = CS Press catalog number /ccccppppo cccc = CS Press catalog number pppp = page number o = object type (abstract, full-text PDF, full-text HTML, full-text SGML)

DOI Scheme for Books /cccc cccc = CS Press catalog number

Summary l Working toward DOIs for all classes of CS published material l Initial focus on periodicals l Proceedings and books to follow l Looking to collaborate with other STM publishers
