[Year 12 SofDev] Naming conventions

[Howard, David]

Hi Mark,

I normally just cover those two, although I call CamelCase, CamelBack, no biggy.

I asked our Network Admin guys today who used to teach the OSI at Uni and here is his response to the KK of OSI and TCPIP if it is of any interest...

"The TCP-IP model predates the OSI, originally having been developed for the department of defence - and perhaps not being as descriptive and detailed as the OSI model is. They're essentially pointing to the same thing though - standardization. http://www.vlsm-calc.net/models.php is a good link so as to see how the models line up. In the TCP/IP model, there are obviously only four layers, with the equivalent of the OSI's Layer 1 and 2 being summarized into the 'Network Access', or 'Link Layer' layer (same thing, different authors!).

So, I'd say that it was more of a correlation, than a relationship - strictly speaking. I guess if you had to stretch to find a relationship, it could be that the OSI model is the reference model, whilst the TCP/IP model is the practical implementation side to that?

It would certainly be worthwhile to encompass both though, especially being that certain articles and texts will only ever refer to the TCP/IP model - especially those with RFC's courtesy of the IETF (Internet engineering task force)"


Hope you all have a great long weekend

Subject: [Year 12 SofDev] Naming conventions

Hi guys. I'm working on the key knowledge for naming conventions.

Has anyone ideas for conventions apart from Hungarian Notation and CamelCase?

I found positional notation, but that did not seem significant.

Regards
