Before Unicode, 8-bit character encoding with its built-in limit of 256 characters could have the same character code number represent a different character in different alphabets.

The following topics are covered: (1) multilingual text processing, including language recognition, character encoding, language specific tokenization, and word normalization; (2) approaches to cross-language text retrieval, including machine translation, multilingual thesauri, using dictionaries, and corpus-based techniques; and (3) cross-language system evaluation campaigns, including the TREC (Text Retrieval Conference Series), CLEF (Cross Language Evaluation Forum, and NTCIR (NACSIS Test Collection for Information Retrieval).

In order to provide the service, COMTEC Translation will employ native speaking translators with an understanding of the international e-commerce marketplace, as well as providing correct textual display and character encoding.

His lantern array scheme used 5-bit character encoding, control codes, and encryption.

There is a further distinction here between text encoding as character encoding, and the kind of encoding that will provide necessary information additional to the string of characters as such.
