INTERNATIONALIZATION AND WEB SERVICES

Each conference covers a wide range of Unicode and internationalization
topics in a variety of contexts, while also exploring one or more topics 
in greater depth. This conference program will have an emphasis on the
current problems and potential solutions for designing and deploying Web
services in scenarios where users and services span the globe.

INTERNATIONALIZATION FOR AN EXPANDED EUROPEAN UNION

Several countries were added to the European Union on May 1.
This will create new internationalization and localization requirements 
for software and Web applications. This conference will identify these 
requirements and provide effective ways to upgrade software to meet
the new challenges.

The conference Web site has more details and numerous example topics:

ATTENTION UNICODERS!

If you are using Unicode in software or on the Web, bring your experience,
knowledge and your remaining questions to light! We invite you to submit
papers describing challenges you faced, lessons learned, and ideas for
future implementation. Our audience is very interested in how Unicode and
internationalization are being applied in the real world. Come and share
your ideas with the peers and industry experts in attendance.

INVITATION TO SUBMIT PAPERS

This is the premier technical conference for software and Web
internationalization and your source for the latest information on
standards, best practices, development tools and advances in the
globalization of software and the Internet. The Internationalization &
Unicode Conference features a number of presentation formats including
tutorials, workshops, lectures, and panel discussions to support different
learning styles. The conference also provides a forum for identifying and
discussing new issues in internationalization.

New technologies, innovative Internet applications, and the evolving
Unicode Standard bring new challenges along with their new capabilities.
Join us in exploring the opportunities created by the latest advances,
understanding how to leverage them, and the potential pitfalls. Share your
ideas for best practices for designing applications that can accommodate
any language.

Attendees benefit from the wide range of basic to advanced topics
and the opportunities for dialog and idea exchange with experts
and peers.

We invite you to submit papers on the conference themes or topics
that relate to Unicode or any aspect of software and Web
Internationalization.
