speaking engagement

It looks like I'm speaking at Infotec again this year. Instead of speaking on infovis, this year I'll be tackling the issue of internationalization. Here is my abstract.

Title: Developing Multilingual Web Applications Using J2EE

Many new Web applications have a requirement to provide application content in multiple languages. The Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) has support for managing localized content, but exactly how this technology should be implemented is not immediately apparent. In this presentation, I will discuss design strategies for developing multilingual Web applications using J2EE. I will share lessons learned as well as approaches one can use to alleviate common roadblocks. The audience is expected to have some knowledge of Java/J2EE.
