A multidimensional approach to Typesetting
2003Co-Authors: John Plaice, Yannis Haralambous, Paul Swoboda, C. A. RowleyAbstract:We propose to create a new model for multilingual computerized Typesetting, in which each of language, script, font and character is treated as a multidimen- sional entity, and all combine to form a multidimensional context. Typesetting is undertaken in a typographical space, and becomes a multiple-stage process of preparing the input stream for Typesetting, segmenting the stream into clusters or words, Typesetting these clusters, and then recombining them. Each of the stages, including their respective algorithms, is dependent on the multidimensional context. This approach will support quality Typesetting for a number of modern and ancient scripts. The paper and talk will show how these are to be implemented in .

An extensible approach to high-quality multilingual Typesetting
Proceedings. Seventeenth Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Simulation, 2003Co-Authors: John Plaice, Yannis Haralambous, Craig RowleyAbstract:We propose to create and study a new model for the micro-typography part of automated multilingual Typesetting. This new model will support quality Typesetting for a number of modern and ancient scripts. The major innovations in the proposal are: the process is refined into four phases, each dependent on a multidimensional tree-structured context summarizing the current linguistic and cultural environment. The four phases are: preparing the input stream for Typesetting; segmenting the stream into clusters (words); Typesetting these clusters; and then recombining the clusters into a typeset text stream. The context is pervasive throughout the process; the algorithms used in each phase are context-dependent, as are the meanings of fundamental entities such as language, script, font and character.

Low-level Devanāgarī Support for Omega - Adapting devnag
Tugboat, 2002Co-Authors: Yannis Haralambous, John PlaiceAbstract:This paper presents tools (OTPs and macros) for Typesetting languages using the Devanāgarī script (Hindi, Sanskrit, Marathi). These tools are based on the Omega Typesetting system and are using fonts from devnag, a package developed by Frans Velthuis in 1991. We are describing these new OTPs in detail, to provide the reader with insight into Omega techniques and allow him/her to further adapt these tools to his/her own environment (input method, font), and even to other Indic languages.

Multilingual Typesetting with Ω, a Case Study: Arabic
1997Co-Authors: Yannis Haralambous, John PlaiceAbstract:In this paper we describe the internal structure of the Arabic script package for the Ω Typesetting system, as well as the techniques and tools used for its development. This package allows Typesetting using regular LaTeX styles, in all Arabic alphabet languages: Arabic, Berber, Farsi, Urdu, Pashto, Sindhi, Uighur, etc. We also give a description of the character codes added to Unicode, to obtain the Unicode++ encoding, used by the Ω system for Typesetting purposes.

Methods for Processing Languages with Ω
1997Co-Authors: Yannis Haralambous, John PlaiceAbstract:In this paper we discuss general issues of multilingual Typesetting and methods used by the Ω Typesetting system. We describe the different levels of language processing with Ω, giving special emphasis to the level of virtual fonts; in particular we give a complete description of the configuration file which is used to create 16-bit virtual fonts out of 8-bit PostScript fonts containing the necessary glyphs.

TEX, XML, and Digital Typography - Typesetting CJK Languages with Omega.
2004Co-Authors: Jin-hwan Cho, Haruhiko OkumuraAbstract:This paper describes how to typeset Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) languages with Omega, a 16-bit extension of Donald Knuth’s TEX. In principle, Omega has no difficulty in Typesetting those East Asian languages because of its internal representation using 16-bit Unicode. However, people have not kept an eye on Omega because of the difficulties in adapting it to CJK Typesetting rules and fonts, which we will discuss in the paper.

Typesetting CJK languages with Ω
Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2004Co-Authors: Jin-hwan Cho, Haruhiko OkumuraAbstract:This paper describes how to typeset Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) languages with Omega, a 16-bit extension of Donald Knuth’s TeX. In principle, Omega has no difficulty in Typesetting those East Asian languages because of its internal representation using 16-bit Unicode. However, it has not been widely used in practice because of the difficulties in adapting it to CJK Typesetting rules and fonts, which we will discuss in the paper.

A decision support system for luggage Typesetting
Expert Systems with Applications, 2008Co-Authors: Shao-lun LeeAbstract:The bin packing problems play an important role in plans of production and saving cost in factories. This paper is to develop a set of intellectual automatic Typesetting system (IATS) for luggage factories through bin packing algorithm and genetic algorithm. Firstly, we attain the cost of raw materials by bill of material (BOM) from orders. Secondly, the producing procedure of the luggage has been divided into two parts. The first part: using the one-dimensional Typesetting algorithm (ODTA) to solve the problem of fabric cutting. The second part: using the two-dimensional packing algorithm to solve the problem of leather, wood and the plastic plates cutting. Finally, we combine the IATS with mobile phone to offer an effective quick response/efficient consumer response (QR/ECR). Hence, users can look up the minimal cost of raw materials and received the quote rapidly. It is not only more effective than traditional fabric Typesetting work but also saves plenty of human resources for luggage factories.

IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation - Using genetic algorithms to solve luggage Typesetting problem
2007 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation, 2007Co-Authors: Shao-lun Lee, Wei-chiang HongAbstract:The bin packing problems play an important role in plans of production and saving cost in factories. This paper is to develop a set of intellectual automatic Typesetting system (IATS) for luggage factories through bin packing algorithm and genetic algorithm. Firstly, we attain the cost of raw materials by bill of material (BOM) from orders. Secondly, the producing procedure of the luggage is to use one-dimensional Typesetting algorithm to solve the problem of fabric cutting. Finally, we combine the IATS with mobile phone to offer an effective quick response/efficient consumer response (QR/ECR). Hence, users can look up the minimal cost of raw materials and received the quote rapidly. The result shows that the overall average utility rate of fabric Typesetting was 95.32% in IATS. It is not only to enhance the efficiency of utility rate for luggage material but also to save plenty of human resources for luggage factories.
