Professor Joshi proposes that a phonemic encoding scheme be adopted as the standard for machine processing of Sanskrit text. In the scheme he details, each phoneme is represented by a single character code that represents a single Sanskrit sound. Graphic units in Devanagari corresponding to syllabic units, including consonant plus /a/, are represented as sequences. Glyphs corresponding to intial vowels verses dependent vowels are not given distinct encodings; rather they are selected based upon context. (P. Scharf).
