English abstract

Since the fact that English language has became the elementary language of/for the Computer Technology and as the usage of Personal Computers is worldwide now, it became apparent that there is a need for adaptation of the data processing on computers, especially for Users from different language zone. A Convention had to be adopted to replace letters with numbers. Although one byte is sufficient for the representation of 256 characters, at the beginning it seems too much. One of the character set is ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange). This set employs a 7-bit character code. ASCII set is adequate for displaying the information in English language, but not adequate enough to display the majority of the world’s languages, because most of the other languages contain the so-called special characters. Therefore, it is necessary to expand the character of the set, so it can be suitable for all languages, providing the exchange of information between computer systems and interfaces. The further development lead us to ISO-8859, a character set of 8-bit, Windows ANSI and, at the end, to UNICODE, a character set of 16-bit. According to rules, the ASCII characters appear as subset of the major other character sets. UNICODE represents the most important extension of the ASCII character set. UNICODE character set supports almost all spoken languages, as well as mathematics’ and other symbols. The support of the UNICODE standards, for all subjects, represents the most important step in the internationalization of the Internet.

Serbian abstract

Kako je osnovni jezik računara engleski i kako se računari koriste širom sveta, ukazala se potreba prilagođavanja rada na računarima korisnicima sa različitih govornih područja. Morala se usvojiti neka konvencija prema kojoj bi se slova označila brojevima. Iako je jedan bajt dovoljan za prikazivanje 256 karaktera, u početku je to izgledalo previše. Jedan od karakter setova je ASCII. Ovaj set je 7-bitni. ASCII set dovoljan je za prikaz informacija na engleskom jeziku, međutim nedovoljan je za prikaz većine drugih jezika, jer mnogi jezici sadrže takozvane specijalne karaktere. Dakle, potrebno je proširenje karakter seta kako bi opslužio sve jezike, obezbeđujući razmenu informacija između kompjuterskih sistema. Dalji razvoj dovodi nas do osmobitnih karakter setova ISO- 8859, Windows ANSI i, najzad, do Unicode šesnaestobitnog karakter seta. Po pravilu se ASCII karakteri pojavljuju kao podskup većine drugih karakter setova. Unicode predstavlja najvažniju ekstenziju ASCII karakter seta. Unicode karakter set podržava karaktere gotovo svih govornih jezika, kao i matematičke i druge simbole. Podrška svih subjekata Unicode standardu predstavlja najvažniji korak u internacionalizaciji Interneta.
