Abstract

See full text

Universal Unique Identifiers (UUIDs) are generated using a variety of algorithms and these algorithms are themselves encoded into the UUID. Each UUID includes two parts: a first part that is an identifier, which is unique to the second part. The second part identifies the algorithm that was used to generate the identifier. Thus, the uniqueness of the identifier is based on how the identifier was created not the entity that created it. The identity of two UUIDs is determined by comparing both the generator algorithm ID and the relative ID.
