title: Are Strong Name and guid the same?
body: <p>As per my knowledge, Strong Name uniquely identifies the assembly.
  It is the combination of assembly name, version, culture, public key and digital signature. And when adding the assembly to GAC, we need to sign the assembly with a strong name.</p>
  
  <p>If I am not wrong GUID is used as the ID when the assembly is exposed to COM. </p>
  
  <p>I found that Strong name and GUID are similar in some sites. Are they reallly similar? If yes how?</p>
