Abstract
Words input to an information processing system character-by-character are given unique unitary representations independent of alphanumeric content and order. A user selects a particular vocabulary set containing the unique unitary representations of each word in the vocabulary set. When a word is input into the system, it is matched with its unique unitary representation. This representation is provided to storage and output devices in the system. It is also utilized in text transmission. Words not found in the preselected vocabulary set are encoded character-by-character. Vocabulary sets may be chosen so as to minimize the occurrence of this last event.
