Abstract

The Sea-Cloud Innovative and Experimental Environment is designed for the Strategic Priority Research Program of the “Next Generation of Information Technology for Sensing China”. It was founded by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. There will be billions of heterogeneous devices in the “Sea” domain. Without unified identifier standards for these devices, issues such as confusion of identifier standards and duplicate identifiers might arise when using these devices in the Sea-Cloud Environment. This paper proposes a unified identifier scheme for the Sea-Cloud system based on different existing identifier standards for different types of devices in the Sea domain. Furthermore, this paper defines a unique identifier for every person who uses smart devices in the Sea domain.
