- Sharding
- Academic disciplines and journals: knowledge production is sharded by topic, a paper routed to the matching journal by editorial topic assignment. Telephone and call-number systems: area codes and exchanges route a call by dialed digits; Dewey and Library of Congress classifications shard a collection by call number.
