	Splint Manual - 12. Naming Conventions
		Type-based naming conventions (Section 12.1) constrain identifier names according to the abstract types that are accessible where the identifier is defined.
		Naming conventions may be combined or different conventions may be selected for different kinds of identifiers.
		Names may be constrained by the scope of the name (external, file static, internal), the file in which the identifier is defined, the type of the identifier, and global constraints.

	SOLVE DATA ARCHIVE NAMING CONVENTION (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The naming convention was adopted in 1998 as an extension to the old, DOS-compatible naming convention.
		File name codes are constructed from the constant parts of the file names and used as a shorthand way to reference a particular type of file.
		The file name extension, P, is used to identify the measurement platform, source, or association of the information within a data file, or the type of image file.

		The prefix of a unique package name is always written in all-lowercase ASCII letters and should be one of the top-level domain names, currently com, edu, gov, mil, net, org, or one of the English two-letter codes identifying countries as specified in ISO Standard 3166, 1981.
		The choice of a variable name should be mnemonic- that is, designed to indicate to the casual observer the intent of its use.
		The names of variables declared class constants and of ANSI constants should be all uppercase with words separated by underscores ("_").

	Naming conventions (programming) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In computer programming, a naming convention is a set of rules for choosing the character sequence to be used for identifiers in source code and documentation.
		The choice of naming conventions (and the extent to which they are enforced) is often a contentious issue, with partisans holding their viewpoint to be the best and others to be inferior.
		Some naming conventions represent rules or requirements that go beyond the requirements of a specific project or problem domain, and instead reflect a greater over-arching set of principles defined by the software architecture, underlying programming language or other kind of cross-project methodology.

	TDAN Judith Newton - Naming Standards
		Naming conventions for data elements are part of the toolset of data administrators.
		What we call a naming convention is a collection of rules, which, when applied to data, results in a set of data elements named in a logical and standardized way.
		This naming convention is adapted from Annex A of ISO 11179-5.

		For relative naming, an entity is named depending upon the position of the naming entity relative to that of the named entity.
		To enable the name server of a domain to resolve simple names, a simple name for a child needs to be assigned distinct from those of all of its ancestors and their immediate children.
		Simple names along parallel trails (distinct trails leading from one domain to the naming universe) must be distinct, e.g., N must be distinct from E for B or A to properly resolve simple names.

		A key feature of this dialing plan is that the address of the destination zone's gatekeeper is embedded in each name, thus providing a means for direct resolution of all names and eliminating the scalability problems of 'advertised' or statically registered zones as described in Annex G of the h.323 standard.
		Another key provision is that this naming scheme is based upon existing infrastructures and does not require the formation of a body to administer names.
		Gatekeepername is the DNS name of the gatekeeper.

	CNS CICS Naming Conventions
		Without naming conventions, it would be practically impossible to manage the CICS environment, identify the owner of applications, or avoid conflicts in the names of the various objects which make up CICS applications.
		The preferred method for naming files is to use the application code as the first two characters of the file; however, some groups have chosen to use their development group code instead.
		The file names for VSAM alternate index paths should be created by appending a "P" to the end of the six character file name of the base cluster.

	Definition of Identifier naming convention
		In computer programming, an identifier naming convention is a standardized method by which to name identifiers (variables, functions, procedures, and any other items that might need a name).
		In addition to the issue of length of identifiers in their descriptive capacity, there are also several systems for codifying specific technical aspects of a particular identifier in the name.
		Several more minor conventions are widespread; one example is the convention of naming variables in C and C++ with an initial lowercase letter, and naming user-defined datatypes with an initial capital letter.

	Jason Mauss' Blog Cabin : DevCampus Database Naming Conventions
		The goal of this particular naming convention is to produce practical, legible, concise, unambiguous and consistent names for your database objects.
		When naming your columns, keep in mind that they are members of the table, so they do not need the any mention of the table name in the name.
		As long as you include the table name, the operation that executes the trigger (Ins, Upd, or Del) and the "Trg" letters, it should be obvious to someone working with the database what kind of object it is. As with all conventions you use, pick one and remain consistent.

	Eclipse: C Identifier Naming Convention
		The identifier would otherwise be identical to a reserved word in C. All C reserved words are lower case, and the only identifiers which Eclipse prints in all lower case are local variables.
		The upper case treatment of identifiers referring to symbols is consistent with the C convention for "symbols" and "`const' variables".
		Tokens named by symbols in the C package are uniformly exempt from case conversion, etc. However, this might cause clashes in C between functions named by symbols in the C package and literal symbols in the C package.

	Develop a Consistent Naming Convention for Your Database Objects
		Adopt a consistent naming convention to limit the ambiguity and uncertainty surrounding an object and its purpose.
		A useful rule of thumb is to have a template for your names: a prefix, a stem, and a modifier that stand for the type, name, and function of the object you're naming, respectively.
		An index name also should reflect whether the index is clustered or not, unique or not, and by including the referencing and referenced tables, whether it enforces a referential fact or not.

	Visual Basic Coding Standard - Hungarian Notation
		The names will be mnemonic in a very specific sense: If someone remembers the type of a quantity or how it is constructed from other types, the name will be readily apparent.
		The names will be suggestive as well: We will be able to map any name into the type of the quantity, hence obtaining information about the shape and the use of the quantity.
		Names of constructed types should be constructed from the names of the constituent types.

		The name comes from the uppercase "bumps" in the middle of the compound word, suggesting the humps of a camel.
		CamelCase is a standard identifier naming convention for several programming languages, and has become fashionable in marketing for names of products and companies.
		This machine lacked an underscore key, and the hyphen and space characters were not permitted in identifiers, leaving CamelCase as the only viable scheme for readable multiword names.

	CMMS Naming Convention and Data Configuration Simplified
		In a CMMS implementation process, it is important that your data is correctly configured and that you use a proper naming convention from the outset.
		With properly named assets, when we need to search for data for the tool room we can find it by specifying that the last two characters of each record must be "TR".
		Clearly, you will have to define your own naming conventions but this is a simple task.

	Cavolon Character Naming Convention
		That is not to say their names should be unreadable jibberish, or require multiple punctuation marks.
		This is why for Cavolon names I start at the end of the alphabet, where all the weird letters are.
		I think the common "y" in the names acts as as much of an identifier as suffixes do for other species.

		However, short names are easier to write, are usually associated with code which is easy to read, and are usually easier to remember.
		Another generally expected pair of variable names are used as the argument count and value for C language main programs: argc and argv.
		If a variable name must be obscure due to language or other restrictions, at least clearly indicate its purpose when defining it.

	No Hungarian .NET
		Back in the early days at Microsoft, Charles Simonyi introduced an identifier naming convention that adds a prefix to the identifier name to indicate the type of the identifier.
		This system became widely used inside (and outside) Microsoft and came to be known as Hungarian notation mainly because Simonyi is originally from Hungary.
		Apparently Microsoft's.NET Naming Guidelines have largely abandoned using prefix characters (the notable exception being interfaces, whose names are to be preceded with an uppercase I..NET has adopted a naming scheme that's very similar to Java's.

	Krzysztof Cwalina : Rationale for Generic Type Parameter Naming Guidelines
		They showed us that the single letter convention simply breaks once you have several interrelated generic types, as opposed to dealing with one or two generic types at a time (for starters try writing a generic type with another nested generic type and use T for both).
		If we left the conventions as they were, initially people would be happy with them, but then they would run into the issues described above and wish we used long names.
		I realize that this is speculative, but we are just trying to do our best to guess the future based on some limited data points we have (a few people who hated the long names and completely changed their mind after using them in large projects).

		just happens to be the end identifier I chose; while it is appropriate for its descriptiveness of the string, it could have been any other string following the end identifier naming convention, which follows.
		The convention itself dictates that identifiers can be any combination of letters (upper- and lowercase), numbers, and underscores.
		However, if you forget to place the end identifier at the leftmost position on a line, you will find yourself trying to figure out an error message for a line that seems to have nothing wrong with it; in fact, it probably doesn't.
