+Identifier\fR (\s-1UUID\s0). It supports \s-1DCE\s0 1.1 variant UUIDs of version 1 (time
+and node based), version 3 (name based, \s-1MD5\s0), version 4 (random number
+based) and version 5 (name based, \s-1SHA\-1\s0). Additional \s-1API\s0 bindings are
+provided for the languages \s-1ISO\-\*(C+:1998\s0, Perl:5 and \s-1PHP:4/5\s0. Optional
+backward compatibility exists for the ISO-C \s-1DCE\-1\s0.1 and Perl Data::UUID
+APIs.
+.PP
+UUIDs are 128 bit numbers which are intended to have a high likelihood
+of uniqueness over space and time and are computationally difficult
+to guess. They are globally unique identifiers which can be locally
+generated without contacting a global registration authority. UUIDs
+are intended as unique identifiers for both mass tagging objects
+with an extremely short lifetime and to reliably identifying very
+persistent objects across a network.

+These are the classical UUIDs, created out of a 60\-bit system time,
+a 14\-bit local clock sequence and 48\-bit system \s-1MAC\s0 address. The \s-1MAC\s0
+address can be either the real one of a physical network interface card

+card (\s-1NIC\s0) on the host which generated the \s-1UUID\s0 \*(-- this reference
+is intended to ensure the \s-1UUID\s0 will be unique in space as the \s-1MAC\s0
+address of every network card is assigned by a single global authority
+(\s-1IEEE\s0) and is guaranteed to be unique. The next component in a \s-1UUID\s0
+is a timestamp which, as clock always (should) move forward, will
+be unique in time. Just in case some part of the above goes wrong
+(the hardware address cannot be determined or the clock moved steps
+backward), there is a random clock sequence component placed into the
+\&\s-1UUID\s0 as a \*(L"catch-all\*(R" for uniqueness.
+.PP
+Version 3 and version 5 UUIDs are guaranteed to be inherently globally
+unique if the combination of namespace and name used to generate them is
+unique.
+.PP
+Version 4 UUIDs are not guaranteed to be globally unique, because they
+are generated out of locally gathered pseudo-random numbers only.
+Nevertheless there is still a high likelihood of uniqueness over space
+and time and that they are computationally difficult to guess.
