Management strategies for internationalization in a distributed computer environment

摘要

A method and system for managing client locale information to a server in a distributed computer enterprise. When a client generates a request to a remote server, the client's international context (e.g., locale and time zone information) is associated with the request. The server then retrieves an internationalization management policy and processes requests from the client according to the internationalization context that is configured by the internationalization context management policy. The internationalization context is propagated to successive servers that further service the client's request.
