Azonosítóséma

Azonosítóséma is a Hungarian term that translates to "identification scheme" or "identifier scheme" in English. It refers to a system or set of rules used to assign unique identifiers to objects, entities, or data within a particular context. These schemes are crucial for managing information, ensuring uniqueness, and facilitating retrieval and processing of data.

Identification schemes can be applied in various domains, including computer science, library science, business, and government. For instance, in computing, universally unique identifiers (UUIDs) or globally unique identifiers (GUIDs) are examples of identification schemes designed to generate values that are unique across space and time. In libraries, ISBNs (International Standard Book Numbers) are used to identify books uniquely. Businesses often employ product codes or customer IDs as part of their identification schemes.

The design of an azonosítóséma typically considers factors such as the range of identifiers needed, the expected lifespan of the identifiers, the ease of generation and interpretation, and the potential for collisions (assigning the same identifier to different entities). The goal is to create a system that is both robust and efficient for its intended purpose. Different schemes might employ sequential numbering, random generation, or structured formats incorporating specific attributes of the entity being identified. The term emphasizes the systematic nature of assigning these identifiers.
