摘要
This paper reasons about naming systems as specialized inference mechanisms. It describes a preference hierarchy that can be used to specify the structure of a naming system's inference mechanism and defines criteria by which different naming systems can be evaluated. For example, the preference- hierarchy allows one to compare naming systems based on how discriminating they are and to identify the class of names for which a given naming system is sound and complete. A study of several example naming systems demonstrates how the preference hierarchy can be used as a formal tool for designing naming systems.
