SGML BeLux '95

Second annual conference on the practical use of SGML
October 25, 1995 - Antwerp, Belgium

Call for contributions

SGML BeLux vzw/asbl, the Belgian-Luxembourgian Chapter of the International SGML Users' Group, is organising its second annual conference on the practical use of SGML. As the very successful SGML BeLux '94 conference has shown, these conferences serve as an active forum for the exchange of ideas and experiences with the use of SGML for electronic document engineering and information delivery. SGML BeLux is again seeking presenters to talk about all aspects of the practical use of SGML. If you or your company have used SGML in innovative ways in a document application, learned about some SGML problems the hard way, have a clear opinion on how SGML should be used or have valuable advice for beginners, we invite you to share your knowledge and experience with us.

Major topics of interest

Contributions to the conference can consist of a full-length paper or a collection of overhead slides dealing with a topic of interest to the conference participants. These topics include (but are not limited to):

Case studies of (un)successful document applications and implementations
Experiences with support tools: conversion programs, editors, browsers, on-line delivery
Design of modular, reusable DTDs: development approaches, useful tips and techniques
Use of databases: storage and retrieval of document components, object-oriented vs. relational
Experiences with related electronic document engineering standards: HyTime, DSSSL, SPDL
Internet document publishing: HTML vs. SGML, SGML viewers, generating documents on the fly
