Methods and Systems of Forming the Uniform Resource Identifier of An Arbitrary Segment of A Resource
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method of forming the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of a segment of a resource, comprising the steps of:
- i. receiving information regarding a resource;
ii. devising a logical framework for the resource according to the information regarding the resource, wherein the logical framework assigns a reference identifier to an arbitrary segment of the resource according to a set of segment information of the segment, and converts a reference identifier assigned to a segment of the resource to the corresponding set of segment information, said set of segment information sufficiently identifying the segment;
iii. formulating an addressing scheme for the resource, wherein the addressing scheme translates a reference identifier assigned to a segment of the resource under the logical framework to a corresponding URI, said URI being composed without the FRAGMENT component;
iv. formulating a reverse-addressing scheme for the resource, wherein the reverse-addressing scheme converts the URI of a segment of the resource formed according to the addressing scheme into the corresponding reference identifier, said reference identifier being compatible with the logical framework;
v. storing the logical framework, the addressing scheme, the reverse-addressing scheme, and their mutual associations with the resource;

Abstract
This disclosure relates to methods and systems of forming the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of an arbitrary segment of a resource without the FRAGMENT component, and generally comprising the steps of devising a logical framework for the resource and formulating an addressing scheme and reverse-addressing scheme for any arbitrary segment of the resource. Embodiments of the general methods and systems may include attaching information regarding the subject matter of the segment of the resource to the corresponding URI, and forming a composite URI for multiple component segments of one or more resources without the need to physically combine the component segments.

7. A computer-implemented method of forming the URI of multiple segments of one or more resources, comprising the steps of:
-
i. receiving a plurality of component Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) corresponding to a plurality of component segments of one or more resources, and an access sequence of the component segments; ii. formulating a composite addressing scheme, wherein the composite addressing scheme translates the plurality of component URIs into a composite URI, wherein said composite URI incorporates the access sequence and is composed without the FRAGMENT component; iii. formulating a composite reverse-addressing scheme, wherein the composite reverse-addressing scheme converts a composite URI formed according to the composite addressing scheme into the corresponding plurality of component URIs and the corresponding access sequence; iv. storing the component URIs, the composite addressing scheme, the composite reverse-addressing scheme, the composite URI, and their mutual associations; - View Dependent Claims (8)

9. A system of forming a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of a resource, comprising one or more processing units operable of:
-
i receiving from one or more applications requests and information regarding a resource and segments of the resource, said one or more applications being operable of receiving information and communicating with the processing units; ii devising a logical framework for the resource, wherein the logical framework assigns a reference identifier to an arbitrary segment of the resource according to a set of segment information of the segment, and converts a reference identifier assigned to a segment of the resource to the corresponding set of segment information, said set of segment information sufficiently identifying the segment; iii formulating an addressing scheme for the resource, wherein the addressing scheme translates a reference identifier assigned to a segment of the resource under the logical framework to a corresponding URI, said URI being composed without the FRAGMENT component; iv formulating a reverse-addressing scheme for the resource, wherein the reverse-addressing scheme converts the URI of a segment of the resource formed according to the addressing scheme into the corresponding reference identifier, said reference identifier being compatible with the logical framework; v storing in one or more data stores the logical framework, the addressing scheme, the reverse-addressing scheme, and their mutual associations with the resource, said one or more data stores being accessible by the one or more processing units; - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
