21st Unicode Conference, May 2002, Dublin, Ireland
>> First European IUC in two years! <<< Twenty-first International Unicode Conference (IUC21) Unicode, Localization and the Web: The Global Connection http://www.unicode.org/iuc/iuc21 May 14-17, 2002 Dublin, Ireland Just 13 weeks to go! < The Unicode Standard has become the foundation for all modern text processing. It is used on large machines, tiny portable devices, and for distributed processing across the Internet. The standard brings cost-reducing efficiency to international applications and enables the exchange of text in an ever increasing list of natural languages. New technologies and innovative Internet applications, as well as the evolving Unicode Standard, bring new challenges along with their new capabilities. The Twenty-first International Unicode Conference (IUC21) will explore the opportunities created by the latest advances and how to leverage them, as well as potential pitfalls to be aware of, and problem areas that need further research. Conference attendees will include managers, software engineers, systems analysts, font designers, graphic designers, content developers, technical writers, and product marketing personnel, involved in the development, deployment or use of Unicode software or content, and the globalization of software and the Internet.

It is 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. In addition to cooperating with ISO on the future development of ISO/IEC 10646, the Consortium is responsible for providing character properties and algorithms for use in implementations. Today 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 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * * * * * Unicode(r) and the Unicode logo are registered trademarks of Unicode, Inc.

New technologies and innovative Internet applications, as well as the evolving Unicode Standard, bring new challenges along with their new capabilities. This technical conference will explore the opportunities created by the latest advances and how to leverage them, as well as potential pitfalls to be aware of, and problem areas that need further research. We invite you to submit papers which either define the software of tomorrow, demonstrate best practice with today's software, or articulate problems that must be solved before further advances can occur. Papers should discuss subjects in the context of Unicode, internationalization or localization. You can view the programs of previous conferences at: http://www.unicode.org/unicode/conference/about-conf.html Conference attendees are generally involved in either the development, deployment or use of Unicode software or content, or the globalization of software and the Internet.
