"The Domain Name System (DNS) is primarily used to convert human friendly domain names (e.g. tesco.com) into IP addresses (e.g. 156.154.166.223) to connect users to websites.Our protocol: Namespace Uniform Media (NUM) extends this functionality, to enable the conversion of domain names into telephone numbers, GPS store locations, social media identifiers and more. The protocol opens up vast possibilities for a new type of search, which returns contact information using one efficient process rather than through a frustrating, data-hungry search. Users could effectively dial a domain rather than a telephone number or enter a domain into a satnav for an exact GPS location, instead of using an oft-inaccurate postcode. For domains that have not adopted the protocol, a NUM Server service will answer the query by returning public contact information collected from the company website.The project will conduct challenging neural network research to collect and label contact data and push the boundaries of DNS technology to structure and serve it to users.Any internet connected device could use NUM, there is no requirement for new hardware or changes to DNS infrastructure. Search engines like Google, Bing and others could augment their results with NUM. Finding contact information is currently unstructured, inconsistent and inefficient. Our vision is to organise the world's contact information."

域名系统（DNS）主要用于将人类友好的域名（例如tesco.com）转换为IP地址（例如156.154.166.223），以将用户连接到网站。我们的协议：命名空间统一媒体（NUM）扩展了此功能，以使域名转换为电话号码，GPS商店位置，社交媒体标识符等。该协议为一种新型搜索提供了巨大的可能性，这种搜索可以通过一个高效的过程返回联系信息，而不是通过令人沮丧的、数据饥渴的搜索。用户可以有效地拨打一个域名而不是一个电话号码，或者在卫星导航系统中输入一个域名，以获得精确的GPS位置，而不是使用经常不准确的邮政编码。对于未采用该协议的域，NUM Server服务将通过返回从公司网站收集的公共联系信息来回答查询。该项目将进行具有挑战性的神经网络研究，以收集和标记接触数据，并推动DNS技术的边界，以构建并为用户提供服务。任何连接互联网的设备都可以使用NUM，不需要新的硬件或更改DNS基础设施。b谷歌、必应等搜索引擎可以通过NUM来增强搜索结果，但查找联系信息目前是无结构的、不一致的、效率低下的。我们的愿景是组织全世界的联系方式。”
