Innovations at SEMICON West 2006 July 11-13
SAN JOSE, Calif., May 18 /PRNewswire/ -- SEMI today released details
for the Manufacturing Productivity and Effectiveness TechXPOT at SEMICON
West, to be held July 11-13 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. The
Manufacturing Productivity and Effectiveness TechXPOT offers targeted
content and sessions highlighting significant issues and innovations in
electronic design collaboration and manufacturing productivity.
"The themes covered in our Manufacturing Productivity and Effectiveness
TechXPOT are critical to the continued success of device manufacturers,"
said John Ellis, senior director of technology and standards at SEMI. "As
manufacturers strive for first pass success on product designs, they are
looking for every avenue to improve yield and shorten cycle time. Solutions
found through Design for Manufacturing, Advanced Process and Equipment
Control, and e-Manufacturing are fundamental to improving the performance
of our fabs."
Located in the Esplanade Hall at the Moscone Center, the Manufacturing
Productivity and Effectiveness TechXPOT will feature technical sessions
from industry partners such as Silicon Integration Initiative (Si2), the
Advanced Equipment Control/Advanced Process Control (AEC/APC) Symposium,
SEMATECH, and the International SEMATECH Manufacturing Initiative (ISMI).
Exhibitors will also be providing focused technical presentations on the
stage.
Highlights for the hall also include the TechXPOT stage featuring
winners of the Technology Innovation Showcase competition (TIS); a hands-on
video arcade sponsored by Microsoft featuring the semiconductor innovations
used in the XBox360; a wireless hot-spot for attendees; and a special area
set aside as meeting rooms for device manufacturers.
Si2 will present sessions on Design for Manufacturing and Collaboration
on Designs below 90 nm. The AEC/APC Symposium session will feature preview
presentations from its upcoming Symposium, taking place September
30-October 5 in Westminster, Colorado. Additionally, SEMATECH/ISMI's
session on Manufacturability will feature chipmaker visions for the future
of manufacturing technologies, emphasizing topics of importance for
manufacturing success. Finally, the TIS 2006 winners in e-Manufacturing
will present on the TechXPOT stage and include Luminescent Technologies,
Inc., Petersen Advanced Lithography, Inc., Seaware Technologies and
Straatum.
