This presentation discusses client-tier globalization challenges and
solutions based on a common deployment architecture using J2EE
application with open standard DHTML/JavaScript technology as the
front-end. We will examine how to leverage JavaScript and Java
technologies to build a complete client-side framework for simplifying
the development of rich Web clients to support multiple languages and
locales consistently across different browsers. We will illustrate
approaches to tackle client-side internationalization issues including
locale determination, translation resource management, locale-sensitive
data processing, performance, and so on. Demonstrations and code
examples are included to showcase concepts and best practices.

Weiran Zhang is a Development Manager in Server Globalization Technology
group at Oracle Corporation. He received his M.S. in Computer Science
from Stanford University and his B.S. with honors in Computer Science
from State University of New York at Buffalo.
