                              INVITATION
                              ----------

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,
Taiwan during 15-17 December 1993. ICCE 95 is the second in the series of
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
the conference program.

                   DISCOVER SINGAPORE IN 1995!
                   ---------------------------

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
established cultures forming a unique backdrop to a clean and modern
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.
