UTF-EBCDIC is an encoding of unicode as a superset of the basic ranges of EBCDIC and has similar advantages for existing EBCDIC based systems as UTF-8 has for existing ascii based systems. It is defined at http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr16/. There are two steps involved. The first step is a UTF-8 like conversion to a bytestream. The second is a byte-byte mapping function via a mapping table.
