    Relevancy is matter of perspective dude. anyway, if you're looking for default/standard abbreviations, then you should mention it in your question. Even though if there is default standard abbreviations like you say, it'll still be a broad area to cover, isn't it? and how can one consider which are the standards? I don't know if there's any official guidelines , if there's then it'll be usable as a foundation to get what you're looking for
