Those prefixes do not conform to the Java naming conventions. The Java API itself uses `Abstract` as a prefix for abstract classes, which has the virtue of conforming to the camel-case, compound-word convention. The suggested standard for interfaces is to use simple nouns or adjectives, like `List` or `Comparable`. Sometimes slightly more compound words are indicated, like `SortedSet`, but the names are still very type-like.
