I want to list a company name in the author field of a bibliographic entry:

@book{CUDA,
  author    = {NVIDIA Corporation},
  title     = {NVIDIA CUDA Compute Unified Device Architecture Programming Guide},
  publisher = {NVIDIA Corporation},
  year      = {2007}
}

But the entry keeps showing up "N. Corporation". Is there a way to get the full author name to show up? I'm currently using the siam BibTEX style.

Just enclose the the author field in another set of braces:

@book{CUDA, 
   author = {{NVIDIA Corporation}}, 
   title = {NVIDIA CUDA Compute Unified Device Architecture Programming Guide}, 
   publisher = {NVIDIA Corporation}, 
   year = {2007}
}

    Enclosing in braces will also make BibTeX obey the capitalization.

    @Kit - Making BibTeX obey capitalization by enclosing the material in an extra pair of curly braces is mainly of relevance for the title field. To the best of my knowledge, no BibTeX style messes with the capitalization of names in the author and editor fields.

    @koo Using the alpha bibliography style either with or without natbib sorts things correctly. So there's probably something else going on. If you can reproduce the problem with a minimal document you can ask a new question. See How to write a MWEB (Minimal working example with Bibliography)? for how to make the example.

    When working with the IEEE style, the double braces alone did not work for me. Adding a backslash did the trick:@book{CUDA, author = {\{NVIDIA Corporation}}, title = {NVIDIA CUDA Compute Unified Device Architecture Programming Guide}, publisher = {NVIDIA Corporation}, year = {2007} }

    Double braces around the complete name, not just the all-caps part. (I needed it for {{SRI Corporation}}.)
