The following are general, industry-wide guidelines for naming objects in a distributed computing environment:
· Avoid building intelligence into object names; simple and intuitive names that are easy to remember are better for both the desktop user and cell administrator. Cells tend to grow and shrink rapidly and must satisfy a global population. For objects, choose names that will be:
¾ Easy to remember
¾ Easy to change
¾ Culturally neutral
· Names should have meaningful relationships to the objects they represent.
