Do any of you who have worked on software development projects have any
ideas on numbering conventions for use cases and other artifacts*?
In the scheme I'm developing, an Order use case would be numbered
ORuc01; its corresponding interaction graph would be numbered ORig01,
etc. These numbers are for cataloging purposes; in common usage, in
response to an inquiry the inquirer would be advised, "well, in the order

If you've had to do this, please contact me so we can compare notes.
