  • Writing As Aesthetic in Modern and Contemporary Japanese-Language Literature
    At the Intersection of Script and Literature: Writing as Aesthetic in Modern and Contemporary Japanese-language Literature Christopher J Lowy A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2021 Reading Committee: Edward Mack, Chair Davinder Bhowmik Zev Handel Jeffrey Todd Knight Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Asian Languages and Literature ©Copyright 2021 Christopher J Lowy University of Washington Abstract At the Intersection of Script and Literature: Writing as Aesthetic in Modern and Contemporary Japanese-language Literature Christopher J Lowy Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Edward Mack Department of Asian Languages and Literature This dissertation examines the dynamic relationship between written language and literary fiction in modern and contemporary Japanese-language literature. I analyze how script and narration come together to function as a site of expression, and how they connect to questions of visuality, textuality, and materiality. Informed by work from the field of textual humanities, my project brings together new philological approaches to visual aspects of text in literature written in the Japanese script. Because research in English on the visual textuality of Japanese-language literature is scant, my work serves as a fundamental first-step in creating a new area of critical interest by establishing key terms and a general theoretical framework from which to approach the topic. Chapter One establishes the scope of my project and the vocabulary necessary for an analysis of script relative to narrative content; Chapter Two looks at one author’s relationship with written language; and Chapters Three and Four apply the concepts explored in Chapter One to a variety of modern and contemporary literary texts where script plays a central role.

  • Extension of VHDL to Support Multiple-Byte Characters
    Extension of VHDL to support multiple-byte characters Kiyoshi Makino Masamichi Kawarabayashi Seiko Instruments Inc. NEC Corporation 6-41-6 Kameido, Koto-ku 1753 Shimonumabe, Nakahara-ku Tokyo 136-8512 Japan Kawasaki, Kanagawa 211-8666 Japan [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Written Japanese is comprised of many kinds of characters. Whereas one-byte is sufficient for the Roman alphabet, two-byte are required to support written Japanese. It should be noted that written Chinese require three-byte. The scope of this paper is not restricted to written Japanese because we should consider the implementation of the standard which covers the major languages using the multiple-byte characters. Currently, VHDL does not support multiple-byte characters. This has proven to be a major impediment to the productivity for electronics designers in Japan, and possibly in other Asian countries. In this paper, we briefly describe the problem, give a short background of the character set required to support Japanese and other multiple-byte characters language, and propose a required change in the IEEE Std 1076. 1. Introduction VHDL[1] have recently become very popular to design the logical circuits all over the world. We, the Electronic Industries Association of Japan (EIAJ), have been working for the standardization activities with the Design Automation Sub-Committee (DASC) in IEEE. In the meanwhile, the VHDL and other related standards have evolved and improved. As the number of designers using VHDL increases so does the need to support the local language though designers have asked EDA tool vendors to enhance their products to support local language, it have often been rejected unfortunately.

  • Implementing Cross-Locale CJKV Code Conversion
    Implementing Cross-locale CJKV Code Conversion Ken Lunde, Adobe Systems Incorporated [email protected] http://www.oreilly.com/~lunde/ 1. Introduction Most operating systems today deal with single locales. Within a single CJKV locale, different operating sys- tems often use different encodings for the same character set. Consider Shift-JIS and EUC-JP encodings for Japanese—Shift-JIS is historically used on MacOS and Windows, but EUC-JP is used on Unix. This makes code conversion a necessity. Code conversion within a single locale is, by and large, a trivial operation that typically involves a mathematical algorithm. In the past, a lot of code conversion was performed by users through dedicated software tools. Many of today’s applications include built-in code conversion routines, but these routines deal with only multiple encodings of a single locale (such as EUC-KR, ISO-2022-KR, Johab, and Unified hangul Code encodings for Korean). Code conversion across CJKV locales, such as between Chinese and Japanese, is more problematic. While Unicode serves as an excellent basis for implementing cross-locale code conversion, there are still problems to be addressed, such as unmappable characters. 2. Code Conversion Basics Converting between different encodings of a single locale, which represents a trivial effort that involves well- established code conversion algorithms (or mapping tables), is a well-understood process these days. How- ever, as soon as code conversion extends beyond a single locale, there are additional complexities that arise, such as the following: • Code conversion algorithms almost always must be replaced by mapping tables because the ordering of characters in different CJKV character sets are different.

  • L2/18-279 & IRG N2334 (Proposal to Define New Unihan Database Property: Kiicore2020)
    ISO/IEC JTC1/SC2/WG2/IRG N2334 L2/18-279 Universal Multiple-Octet Coded Character Set International Organization for Standardization Doc Type: ISO/IEC JTC1/SC2/WG2/IRG Title: Proposal to define new Unihan Database property: kIICore2020 Source: Ken Lunde (Adobe) Status: Individual Contribution Action: For consideration by the UTC & IRG Date: 2018-09-03 (see L2/18-066, L2/18-066R & L2/18-066R2) Per the documents listed directly above in parentheses, two of which are subsequent revisions of the first document, I previously proposed what I considered to be modest changes to the existing kIICore property, mainly to address some shortcomings that were identified in a series of five CJK Type Blog articles. Given the reluctance on the part of some national bodies to accept such modest changes, I decided to instead propose a completely new Unihan Database property that releases the set from being hampered by memory constraints that may have been applicable 15 years ago, but which arguably no longer apply to modern environments. The proposed property name is kIICore2020, which includes as part of its name the year in which the first version of Unicode that could include this new property is released, specifically Version 13.0. The attached iicore2020-data.txt data file provides all of the property data as proposed in this document, and covers 20,625 CJK Unified Ideographs and 69 CJK Compatibility Ideographs. The seven sections that follow describe the scope of each of the seven supported source tags, which are the same as those used by the existing kIICore property.

  • Proposal to Establish a CJK Unified Ideographs “Urgently Needed Characters” Process (Revised) Authors: Dr
    ISO/IEC JTC1/SC2/WG2 Nxxxx L2/11-442R Universal Multiple-Octet Coded Character Set International Organization for Standardization Doc Type: Working Group Document Title: Proposal to establish a CJK Unified Ideographs “Urgently Needed Characters” process (revised) Authors: Dr. Ken Lunde (小林釰) & John Jenkins (井作恆) Source: The Unicode Consortium Status: Liason Contribution Action: For consideration by JTC1/SC2/WG2 Date: 2012-02-07 (originally submitted on 2011-11-17) Background The process of standardizing repertoires of CJK Unified Ideographs is long and cumbersome, and is almost always measured in years. This is primarily because the typical CJK Unified Ideograph repertoire includes thousands or tens of thousands of characters, and thus requires several rounds of review and discussion before it can be stan- dardized. Extension E, for example, began as Extension D, whose national body submissions were accepted in early 2007, and included characters that were deferred from Extension C. Extension E is currently at the final stages of standardization. To address this particular process shortcoming, the IRG established a one-time UNC (Urgently Needed Characters) repertoire as one of the IRG 29 Resolutions (see IRG N1377, specifically Resolution IRG M29.5), which eventually became CJK Unified Ideographs Extension D, with 222 CJK Unified Ideographs (U+2B740 through U+2B81D), and which was subsequently included in Unicode Version 6.0. Without a formalized UNC-like process in place, which would serve as a parallel pipeline for smaller repertoires of urgently-needed CJK Unified Ideographs, it is extraordinarily difficult for national bodies to standardize smaller sets of urgently-needed CJK Unified Ideographs in a timely manner.

  • NAME DESCRIPTION Supported Encodings
    Perl version 5.8.6 documentation - Encode::Supported NAME Encode::Supported -- Encodings supported by Encode DESCRIPTION Encoding Names Encoding names are case insensitive. White space in names is ignored. In addition, an encoding may have aliases. Each encoding has one "canonical" name. The "canonical" name is chosen from the names of the encoding by picking the first in the following sequence (with a few exceptions). The name used by the Perl community. That includes 'utf8' and 'ascii'. Unlike aliases, canonical names directly reach the method so such frequently used words like 'utf8' don't need to do alias lookups. The MIME name as defined in IETF RFCs. This includes all "iso-"s. The name in the IANA registry. The name used by the organization that defined it. In case de jure canonical names differ from that of the Encode module, they are always aliased if it ever be implemented. So you can safely tell if a given encoding is implemented or not just by passing the canonical name. Because of all the alias issues, and because in the general case encodings have state, "Encode" uses an encoding object internally once an operation is in progress. Supported Encodings As of Perl 5.8.0, at least the following encodings are recognized. Note that unless otherwise specified, they are all case insensitive (via alias) and all occurrence of spaces are replaced with '-'. In other words, "ISO 8859 1" and "iso-8859-1" are identical. Encodings are categorized and implemented in several different modules but you don't have to use Encode::XX to make them available for most cases.
