    INVITATION TO SUBMIT PAPERS

    The Internationalization & Unicode Conference is the premier technical
    conference worldwide for both software and Web internationalization.
    The conference features tutorials, lectures, and panel discussions that
    provide coverage of standards, best practices, and recent advances in the
    globalization of software and the Internet. The conference continues to
    provide a forum for identifying and discussing new issues in this field.

    New technologies, innovative Internet applications, and the evolving
    Unicode Standard bring new challenges along with their new capabilities.
    This technical conference will explore the opportunities created by the
    latest advances, how to leverage them, and the potential pitfalls. Their
    impact on business and the problem areas that need further research will
    also be identified. Best practices for designing applications that can
    accommodate any language will be demonstrated.

    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 that relate to Unicode or any aspect of
    software and Web Internationalization, with special emphasis on the themes
    discussed below. You can view the programs of previous conferences at:
    http://www.unicode.org/unicode/conference/about-conf.html

    CONFERENCE ATTENDEES

    Conference attendees are generally involved in either the development and
    deployment of Unicode software, or the globalization of software and the
    Internet. They include managers, software engineers, testers, systems
    analysts, program managers, font designers, graphic designers, content
    developers, web designers, web administrators, site coordinators, technical
    writers, and product marketing personnel.

    THEME: INTERNATIONAL COMPUTING SOLUTIONS FOR GLOBAL BUSINESS

    "International Computing Solutions for Global Business" is the overall
    theme of the Conference.

    In today's tight economy, companies are looking for productivity
    improvements and increased international sales. One of many challenges is
    to maximize use of existing resources while accomplishing these
    achievements.
    Another is to incorporate new standards and technologies to gain
    competitive
    features.

    In support of the theme and these challenges, papers on GLOBAL BUSINESS and
    NEW TECHNOLOGIES are requested. More details on the theme and other topics
    of interest can be found at our web site:
    http://www.unicode.org/iuc/iuc24/call.html

    We invite you to submit papers which define tomorrow's computing,
    demonstrate
    best practices in computing today, or articulate problems that must be
    solved before further advances can occur. Presentations should be geared
    towards a technical audience.

    THE UNICODE CONSORTIUM

    The Unicode Consortium is a non-profit organization dedicated to the
    development, maintenance and promotion of The Unicode Standard, a worldwide
    character encoding. The Unicode Standard encodes the characters of the
    world's principal scripts and languages, and is code-for-code identical to
    the international standard ISO/IEC 10646. The Consortium also defines
    character properties and algorithms for use in implementations. The
    membership base of the Unicode Consortium includes major computer
    corporations, software producers, database vendors, research institutions,
    international agencies and various user groups.

    For further information on the Unicode Standard, visit the Unicode Web site
    at http://www.unicode.org or e-mail <info@unicode.org>
