A predictable formatting of text used to identify a resource on a network (usually the Internet) OR A string of characters that must follow prescribed syntaxes such as URL, URN... Note Version 1.1 of the XML namespaces recommendation uses IRIs (Internationalized Resource Identifiers) instead of URIs. However, because version 1.1 is not yet a full recommendation [February, 2003] and because the IRI RFC [11] is not yet complete, this document continues to refer to URIs instead of IRIs.
