	European Article Numbering-Uniform Code Council
		European Article Numbering-Uniform Code Council (EAN-UCC) is the international organization of product barcodes that are printed on almost everything that is sold in stores worldwide.
		Uniform Code Council (UCC) is the Numbering Organisation in the USA to administer and manage the EAN·UCC system standards in the USA and Canada.
		The book codes are constructed by prefixing the ISBN number with 978 and 979 and recalculating the trailing checksum digit, because the ISBN and EAN.UCC codes use different algorithms for this.

	Barcode Online Reference
		The European Article Numbering system, or EAN, is a superset of the UPC symbology that was introduced in 1978.
		EAN scanners can decode both UPC and EAN barcodes, but UPC scanners built before 1978 may not be able to decode EAN barcodes.
		This is because the EAN symbology is derived from the UPC symbology.

	Universal Product Code (UPC) and EAN Article Numbering Code (EAN)
		The Japanese Article Numbering (JAN) System (JAN) codes are the same as the EAN codes, with the flag characters set to ``49''.
		Standard EAN (sometimes called EAN-13 or DUN-13) has 10 numeric characters, 2 or 3 "flag" characters which are usually a code for the country of the EAN International organization issuing the number, and a check digit.
		EAN International is is the organization that manages the EAN system worldwide, currently there are national organizations in 92 countries on the 5 continents.

		This code is now called the International Article Number; however, the EAN abbreviation remains.
		The difference between EAN-13 and UPC (A) is that EAN-13 encodes a 13th number into the left six number of a UPC (A) symbol.
		This number is designed for use on publications and periodicals and appears as an additional bar code to the right of the main bar code.

		An EAN 13 barcode symbol contains the same number of bars as U.P.C Version A, but encodes a 13th digit from the character set pattern of the left-hand six digits, in the same manner as the encodation of the check digit in a U.P.C Version E symbol.
		The odd numbers starting with the right most digits are multiplied by 3 and added to the sum, while the even numbers are simply added to the sum.

	Trinary - European Standards
		This explains why Europe's diversity is also shown in the number of EDI standards in use.
		This is the message standard used by the European automotive industry (Yes German companies use 2 standards!) and is based on EDIFACT syntax (building blocks and delimiters) but the segments are quite different and more specific to the industry sector (and thus smaller and easier to implement than full EDIFACT).
		EAN boasts high growth in number of users and countries where EANCOM is used.

	European Telephony Numbering Space - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the interest in forming a trans-Europe numbering plan as an option (or future movement) for anyone needing multi-national European telephone presence, the ITU allocated country calling code +388 as a subdivided, catch-all container for such services.
		It is therefore not possible to reverse engineer the location of an owner of an ETNS number based on the characteristics of the phone number.
		The numbers are also not allocated in blocks to individual carrier companies and are therefore intended to be portable.

	Bar Code Détente: U.S. Finally Adds One More Digit: SNX.com News
		The difference between the American and the European bar code standards, as it so often is in computing, is a matter of digits.
		When the Europeans set up their bar code in 1977, patterned after the American standard, they reasonably decided that they needed extra digital space for more products and identifying countries.
		EAN International, based in Brussels, and the Uniform Code Council, based in Lawrenceville, N.J., will be folded into one organization, called GS1, next year.

		EAN is very similar in structure and algorithm to it’s American counterpart UPC, some readers and scanners effectively treat them as being the same.

		An EAN-13 symbol contains the number of bars as UPC Version A, but encodes a 13th digit from the character set pattern of the left-hand 6 digits, in the same manner as the encodation of the check digit in a UPC Version E symbol.
		Each country has a coding authority (or numbering association) which assigns codes to manufacturers and maintains a central database.
