CITY OF FUKUOKA ------------------------------------------------------
Fukuoka is the largest city of Kyushu Island.
Fukuoka has a population of 1.27 million. The rich natural beauty of Fukuoka
has attracted both Japanese and foreigners. Near the conference site are Hakata
bay and the islands of the Genkai National Park.
Located near from Korea and China, Fukuoka has flourished as an international
city since ancient times. Fukuoka is now experiencing dynamic growth and
development as a hub city for East Asia. Numerous international air and sea
routes throughout the Asia and Pacific regions converge on Fukuoka.
As an information source befitting the Asian core city of Fukuoka, Fukuoka
Software Research Park (SRP) has been built at Seaside Momochi.
Located in this newly developed waterfront area are Fukuoka Tower,
Fukuoka Dome (the largest baseball stadium in Japan), hotels, shopping malls, restaurants and museums.
The conference site is the Central Building of the Research Park, which has
modern facilities for conferences and meetings.
Nearby are research centers of Aso & IBM Japan Group, Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., NEC, Daewoo & Fukuoka City Bank Group, Fujitsu, and Hitachi.
Many small companies on information technologies are also located in the
Central Building. The Fukuoka SRP aims to be the primary information source for
the Asian & Pacific regions. You can see information on FUKUOKA SRP at
