Abstract :
part of the idea introduced is presented through the TYPOGRAPHy of this abstract. as OPTICal READers, SPEECH COMPRESsion, external VIDEO-FILE or MICROForm STORage, ANALOG-DIGITal-analog conversion, and free-TEXT SEARCHing are gradually combined with parallel processing COMPUTers, there is a growing need for SOURCE INDEXing and TEXT COMPRESsion of ABSTRACTs or the original full DOCUMENT RECORDs. a methodology is described which will meet these trends as well as shorten human READing time and facilitate BROWSing, SCANning, and INFORMation RETRIEVal within DOCUMENTs themselves. a simple PEDAL SWITCH device is used to bestow efficient functioning of CAPITAL and SMALL LETTERs. the outlined technique can be used in practical applications to speed up INFORMation RETRIEVal by most general-purpose DIGITal COMPUTers, but also implies design concepts for a special-purpose STRING PROCESsor, and units for ALPHABETic INPUT SORTing, WORD-STEM STORage, ASSOCIATive CONCEPT LINKage, and FILE ORGANIZation. in this context ALLOCATion of internal MEMORy and external STORage is discussed. the technical procedure and the rule of thumb for FORMATing may be regarded as a game of SEMANTic OPTIMization within the frame of certain criteria similar to ORIENTal WORD CHAINing such as HAIKU and RENGA. high INFORMation density and ENTROPy reduction is also anticipated while the basic principle is merely practical. GRAMMArless TEXT handling as described is reminiscent of ORWELL´s NEWSPEAK in the year 1984.
