on  Tue, 9:30in  for  90min

A ninety-minute, high-level introduction to software internationalization (i18n) and the Unicode technologies that make it possible. The goal of the tutorial is to provide students with a general overview of i18n and Unicode that sets the stage for the more specific tutorials that will follow. The tutorial will cover basic i18n concepts, common i18n concerns, available i18n resources, and the overall process of i18n, across the software development life cycle. It will conclude by looking at the benefits and costs of i18n, from a technical, financial and organizational perspective.
