OSSP uuid is a ISO-C and Perl application programming interface (API)
and corresponding command line interface (CLI) for the generation of
- DCE 1.1 and ISO/IEC 11578:1996 and RFC 4122 compliant Universally
- Unique Identifier (UUID). It supports DCE 1.1 variant UUIDs of version
- 1 (time and node based), version 3 (name based, MD5), version 4
- (random number based) and version 5 (name based, SHA-1).

UUIDs are 128 bit numbers which are intended to have a high likelihood
of uniqueness over space and time and are computationally difficult
