However, it is not as widely understood as it should be, because of the unavoidable complexity of handling all of the world's writing systems, even in a fairly uniform way.

  • Character Set Migration Best Practices For
    Character Set Migration Best Practices $Q2UDFOH:KLWH3DSHU October 2002 Server Globalization Technology Oracle Corporation Introduction - Database Character Set Migration Migrating from one database character set to another requires proper strategy and tools. This paper outlines the best practices for database character set migration that has been utilized on behalf of hundreds of customers successfully. Following these methods will help determine what strategies are best suited for your environment and will help minimize risk and downtime. This paper also highlights migration to Unicode. Many customers today are finding Unicode to be essential to supporting their global businesses. Oracle provides consulting services for very large or complex environments to help minimize the downtime while maximizing the safe migration of business critical data. Why migrate? Database character set migration often occurs from a requirement to support new languages. As companies internationalize their operations and expand services to customers all around the world, they find the need to support data storage of more World languages than are available within their existing database character set. Historically, many legacy systems required support for only one or possibly a few languages; therefore, the original character set chosen had a limited repertoire of characters that could be supported. For example, in America a 7-bit character set called ASCII is satisfactory for supporting English data exclusively. While in Europe a variety of 8 bit European character sets can support specific subsets of European languages together with English. In Asia, multi byte character sets that could support a given Asian language and English were chosen. These were reasonable choices that fulfilled the initial requirements and provided the best combination of economy and performance.

DOCTOR 01 the IndIan Adminhtrati\c~ Sen ice, Director of Censlls Operations Gujarat Cujarat is the home of 3,734,422 tribal people constituting 13.99 per cent of the State's total popu­ lation of 26,697,475. They are the inheritors of an art tradition that is the product of long development lind continues to this day in unbroken succession. Isolated communities till recent times, their traditions of their art have been passed down by oral trans­ mission from mother to daughter and father to son and reveals an inspiration and outward expression in forms and motifs that have remained basically zm­ changed through the years. Many of the art forms of the Adivasis are the result of deep spiritual experience or have their roots in dream. story, myth or legend. Significant forms have thus survived without major alteration through centuries dllring lvhich the underlying myths and legends have remained basically the same. They have taken the material of their crafts from the environment arollnd them. One of the commo­ nest materials used was clay, e;rploiting the plasti­ city of which they never seem to have tired. Terra­ cotta objects are produced on an unimaginably large scale and for a variety of purposes. The rich diffusion of terra-cotta products of innumerable shapes and sizes that may still be found in any area of Clljarat inhabited by the tribal people is testimony to thl: fact that this tradition still continues uninterrupted.
