A method and apparatus suitable for resolving a symbolic identifier to a physical data stream is described. The method and apparatus is particularly suited to resolving physical datastreams in a dynamic distributed network environment 1. The symbolic identifier is typically generated in a process resident on a terminal connected to a network. The physical datastream is typically resourced by a repository 5. Resources such as servers 7 capable of performing such a resolution, are organised in a hierarchical relationship.
