OASIS and ITU-T Jointly Sponsor 'Workshop and Demonstration of Advances'

["Dee Schur" <dee.schur@oasis-open.org>]

OASIS and ITU-T Jointly Sponsor 'Workshop and Demonstration of Advances
in ICT Standards for Public Warning.'

OASIS is pleased to announce the first international workshop and
demonstration/exhibition focusing on standards for public warning which
will occur on 19-20 October 2006 in Geneva, Switzerland. This program
has been designed to build upon the results of the earlier ITU-T
Workshop on Telecommunications for Disaster Relief that emphasized the
practical application of standards for public warnings. The workshop
will review the work by Standards Development Organizations (SDOs) in
related areas; identify standardization gaps and discover collaboration
opportunities for key players from both the public and private sectors.
In addition, the two-day workshop will feature an emergency management
interoperability demonstration of the Common Alerting Protocol (CAP)
OASIS standard, as well as presentations and exhibitions by various
players active in public warning.
