    Sridharan,

    EBCDIC code pages have lots of variants. The most notable is the different
    printer control characters. Many EBCDIC code pages use SI/SO shift
    characters. Characters bracketed by SI/SO are translated differently. Some
    vendors have used alternate SI/SO characters.

    Otherwise it is just like any other code page to Unicode translation.

    If you do not have the appropriate translation facilities then you can use
    ICU. http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/
