Canonical BibTeX naming scheme:

This scheme follows the automated generation of entries for .bib files generated by the zetoc2bib script. By setting up a zetoc account the contents of chosen journals can be sent automatically. Editing these and placing a * in front of entries that you want to add to bib files enables the zetoc2bib script to produce a suitable .bib entry. The naming scheme is the surname of the first author followed by the first letter of the surnames of the coauthors (in order), followed by the last two digits of the year.

For example, the entry in my saved file emailed from zetco alerts becomes

<put star here> pp. 3706-3707

Protein Folding Kinetics Under Force from Molecular Simulation. Best, R.B.; Hummer, G.

and zetoc2bib turns this into:

@ARTICLE{BestH08,

 author    = {Best, R. B. and Hummer, G.},
 title     = {Protein Folding Kinetics Under Force from Molecular
             Simulation.},
 journal   = {J. Amer. Chem. Soc.},
 year      = {2008},
 volume    = {130},
 pages     = {3706-3707}

}

David's collection of .bib files can be found in ~wales/tex/bib/ on clust. All the entries generated with zetoc2bib follow the canonical naming scheme. To use zetoc2bib you will need zetoc.to.isi.pl, isi2bib and zetoc2bib itself, which are all in ~wales/bin/
