> The ICCE conference series is a bi-annual event which is held in an
> Asia-Pacific country. The first conference ICCE 93 was held in Taipei,

> meetings and will be organized under the umbrella of the AACE
> Asia-Pacific Chapter which was formed after ICCE 93.
>
> ICCE 95 will focus on a broad spectrum of inter-disciplinary research
> topics concerned with theories, technologies and practices of applying
> computers in education. It aims to provide a forum for scientific
> interchange among educators, cognitive scientists, computer scientists,
> and practitioners throughout the world, and especially from the Asia-
> Pacific region.
>
> The conference will be concerned with the current state of the art, and
> will serve as a reference basis for future research as well as the real-
> world deployment of educational technologies. There will be tutorials and
> invited talks, and demonstrations of working systems, prototypes and
> selected commercial products. ICCE 95 is supported by a strong
> international program committee that ensures full refereeing of all
> submitted papers.
>
> A unique feature of ICCE 95 is an Applications Track in which solicits
> papers from Singapore and other Asia-Pacific countries that present the
> best practices in the use of information technology for education.
>
> We invite you to attend the ICCE 95 conference and submit proposals for
> papers and demonstrations. All proposals are reviewed for inclusion in

> ICCE 95 will be held in the island republic of Singapore. Situated at one
> of the most important crossroads of the world, Singapore is truly a place
> where East and West come together. Here you will find Chinese, Indian
> and Malay communities living harmoniously together, their long

> garden city. English is spoken everywhere and is the commonly used
> business language.
>
> Singapore is a thriving business and financial centre for Southeast Asia.
> It has the world's busiest port, and its award winning airport serves
> more than 60 major airlines, including the country's own international
> carrier, Singapore Airlines. It has the tallest hotel in the world (where
> ICCE '95 will be held!). Singapore has an astonishing mix of old ethnic
> areas, modern offices and shopping complexes. It has over 70 world class
> hotels, 18 lush golf courses, and a host of tourist attractions. Few
> places on earth promise such a delight for the palate, with gourmet
> cuisine from over 30 countries.
>
> Singapore's climate is warm and welcoming all year round, with
> temperatures ranging from 30 C in the day to 23 C by night.
