KEYNOTE SPEAKERS:
Everette Jordan, Director, National Virtual Translation Center (NVTC) 
   and Benson Margulies, COO/CTO, Basis Technology Corporation.

PROGRAM:
Governments and industry are challenged today with increasing requirements
for communications in a variety of languages. The needs of U.S. Homeland 
Security, and the expansion of the European Union's list of official languages
are just 2 examples. These problems and available solutions are the focus 
of the 25th Internationalization and Unicode Conference. Sessions and panels 
on working with languages within government will be provided as well as
numerous opportunities for peer networking and the following presentations:

* Completely new tutorials such as: Internationalization Project
  Planning, Internationalized Software Testing

* Track on Localization organized and sponsored by The Institute of
  Localisation Professionals (TILP)

* Enhanced Unicode tutorial (incorporating Unicode 4.0), and updates to
  the popular tutorials on Web internationalization, writing systems,
  distributed systems, and authentic Arabic
  
* Internationalization techniques: locales, legacy data, transliteration,
  Web internationalization, scripts, rendering, platforms, and conversion
  
* Programming sessions: Java, .NET, IBM ICU, Oracle, and testing

* Case studies

* Exhibitor's Showcase highlights the latest advances in language 
  services, tools and technologies
  
* Hilton Alexandria Mark Center is located in the West End of Historic
  Alexandria, within sight of the capitol and minutes from the central 
  business district of Washington DC

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. 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.
