What is an Application Profile and what data does it associate with a DOI name?

0

Every DOI name is associated with one or more Application Profiles (APs). APs, which will themselves be identified by DOI names, are abstractions used to group DOI names into sets in which all DOI names of the given set, or AP, share a metadata schema, business rules for DOI name assignment, and other common characteristics. An AP consists of at least a set of structured metadata elements, plus some rules (policy, business and procedural rules, not all necessarily automated). AP metadata, business rules, and other specifics will be determined by the community defining the AP; in practice this is likely to be, or to closely involve, the RA concerned.
