Abstract

A system and process for achieving faster Unicode normalizations is described. Various approaches are highlighted that when used alone or in combination eliminate a number of time consuming routines of conventional normalization approaches. Some of the approaches include late normalization, avoiding second table lookups, compressed classes and use of flags, assigning classes to base characters, complicated characters, and flags.
