Software Universal Converter
A Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), is a short string of characters used to identify or name a resource. The main purpose of this identification is to enable interaction with representations of the resource over a network, typically the World Wide Web, using specific protocols. URIs are defined in schemes defining a specific syntax and associated protocols.
Relationship to URL and URN
Venn diagram of Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) scheme categories. Schemes in the URL (locator) and URN (name) categories both function as resource IDs, so URL and URN are subsets of URI. They are also, generally, disjoint sets. From here, you can download and find information about software written by me. However, many schemes can't be categorized as strictly one or the other, because all URIs can be treated as names, and some schemes embody aspects of both categories - or neither. A URI can be classified as a locator or a name or both. A Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is a URI that, in addition to identifying a resource, provides means of acting upon or obtaining a representation of the resource by describing its primary access mechanism or network "location". For example, the URL http:www. wikipedia.
