Naming Convention for Lattice Files

[jbengtsson]

For a lattice design project, i.e., covering the evolution from a:

design concept -> CDR -> PDR -> etc.

given the multitude of lattice files that will be generated during this activity – and exchanged between individuals & groups, i.e., the End Users – a well thought out naming convention at the outset, is as important as e.g. ditto for the parameters for a control system for such a system:

<system> -> <sub-system> -> <sub-sub-system> -> etc.

Hence, for a Straw Man proposal for Functional Specs – i.e., What vs. How/Design Specs – I suggest:

<accelerator> <engineering footprint/structure> <linear optics> <nonlinear dynamics> <version>
