I was looking for a thread that gives some details about the various constants, functions, etc found in the DSDT files, but couldn't find one.
For instance, I haven't been able to figure out what _GPE stands for, but I do know that _SB represents the System Bus, _PR is for Processor (?), etc.

keep an eye out for one of the recent acpi specification documents that are publicly available from e.g.
here.
you've probably been googling for 'dsdt, rsdt, ...' and not 'acpi'.
