DCN Convention for 802.21The file name shall be as shown. An example of a good filename that conforms to the

naming convention is 21-08-0005-00-0000-Naming_Convention.ppt

Generic filename: gg-yy-ssss-rr-GGGG-brief_topic_name.ext, where• “gg” is the 802 group 21• “yy” is the last 2 digits of the year the document is presented• “ssss” is the sequence number of the document (contributor obtains this number

from a WG official or from the website, incorporates it in the document before making the submission). Sequence number resets to 1 at end of every year.

• “rr” is the revision number• “GGGG” is the file code. This is the WG, TG (task group letter), SG (as

designated by chair), or SC (as designated by chair) to which the document is assigned or presented. Current choices are as follows:

• 0000: 802.21 WG documents• mrpm: Multi Radio Power Management Study Group documents• 0sec: Security Study Group documents

• “brief_topic_name” Human readable name should be as short as possible (please use underscore as the coupling letter between words). Do not add any other detail in this sub-string of the filename.

• “ext” Is the commonly used 3 letter file extensions: .doc for Word, .ppt for PowerPoint, .pdf for Adobe Acrobat compatible files, .xls for Excel spread sheets.
