Mic Bowman, Larry Peterson, Andrey K. Yeatts · Software Practice and Experience · 1990

Abstract Univers is a generic attribute‐based name server upon which a variety of high‐level naming services can be built. This paper defines Univers' underlying attribute‐based naming model. It also describes several aspects of its implementation and demonstrates how various naming services—including a global white‐pages service, a local yellow‐pages service and a conventional name‐to‐address mapper—can be built on top of Univers.
