Naming Convention System

A Naming Convention System is a convention system that establishes comprehensive rules and standards for name creation within a specific domain or organization.

• AKA: Nomenclature System, Naming Standard System, Name Convention Framework.
• Context:
  • It can typically standardize name formation through systematic rules and consistent patterns.
  • It can typically ensure cross-system compatibility through interoperability standards and translation mappings.
  • It can often evolve through convention updates and standard revisions.
  • It can often integrate with automated systems through programmatic interfaces and validation APIs.
  • It can range from being a Local Naming Convention System to being a Global Naming Convention System, depending on its adoption scope.
  • It can range from being a Simple Naming Convention System to being a Comprehensive Naming Convention System, depending on its rule coverage.
  • It can range from being a Informal Naming Convention System to being a Formal Naming Convention System, depending on its specification rigor.
  • It can range from being a Static Naming Convention System to being a Adaptive Naming Convention System, depending on its evolution capability.
  • ...
• Example:
  • Knowledge Base Naming Convention Systems, such as:
    • GM-RKB Naming Convention for wiki concepts.
    • WordNet Naming Convention for semantic relations.
    • DBpedia Naming Convention for structured data.
  • Technical Naming Convention Systems, such as:
    • Java Naming Convention for programming.
    • REST API Naming Convention for web services.
    • DNS Naming Convention for internet domains.
  • Scientific Naming Convention Systems, such as:
    • IUPAC Naming System for chemistry.
    • Linnaean Taxonomy for biology.
  • ...
• Counter-Example:
  • Ad Hoc Naming Practice, which lacks systematic rules.
  • Personal Naming Preference, which varies by individual.
  • Random Name Assignment, which ignores conventions.
