UNICODE 4.1 - Multilingual Challenges and Solutions for 2006

The Internationalization and Unicode Conference (IUC) is the premier technical conference for software and multilingual computing, and it is your source for the latest information on advances in the globalization of software and the Internet. The 28th IUC features a number of presentation formats including tutorials, workshops, lectures, and panel discussions to support different learning styles.

The release this year of version 4.1 brings us closer to 100,000 characters in the Unicode Character Standard. Leaders in Software and Web Internationalization will share their expertise and best practices in working with the expanding character set and identify new challenges and opportunities in multilingual computing.

You are invited to contribute to the discussion. All topics related to Unicode, software and Web internationalization, and specific regional challenges are relevant, but emphasis will be given to topics that fit this theme with a focus on actual practice. The conference will also explore how to make internationalization and localization more efficient even when extending support to languages with complex processing and rendering behavior. There will be a track devoted to localization standards, tools, methodologies and techniques.

The conference web site has more details and numerous example topics: http://www.global-conference.com/iuc28

COLLABORATION WITH TILP

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.
