Individuality plays a vital role in life and in business. It's what helps firms to mark themselves out from their competitors. It makes people easier to remember and it keeps life interesting. After all, who wants the same experience in Berlin and in Bordeaux? Or in Salzburg and in Southampton? But this individualistic take on life and business has its limitations. Imagine a world where an identity document you were issued in Vienna would not work in Venice. So, to ensure smart cards and other ID documents operate within a specified area, work is taking place behind the scenes to ensure that both the documents and the devices are truly interoperable. © 2009 Vieweg+Teubner | GWV Fachverlage GmbH, Wiesbaden.
