Semiconductor manufacturing: ASMC 2014 offers visibility and opportunity

SAN JOSE, USA: SEMI announced that the deadline for presenters to submit an abstract for the 25th annual SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference (ASMC) is extended to November 28.

ASMC, which takes place May 19-21, 2014 in Saratoga Springs, New York, will feature technical presentations of more than 80 peer-reviewed manuscripts covering critical process technologies and fab productivity.

This year's event features a panel discussion on "25 Years of Semiconductor Manufacturing," moderated by Paul Werbaneth, 3D InCites, technical sessions on advanced semiconductor manufacturing, a keynote by TSMC, and tutorials on Silicon Photonics offered by Intel and Directed Self Assembly by IBM.

ASMC, celebrating 25 years of excellence, continues to fill a critical need in our industry and provides a venue for industry professionals to network, learn and share knowledge on new and best-method semiconductor manufacturing practices and concepts.

Selected speakers have the opportunity to present in front of IC Manufacturers, Equipment Manufacturers, Materials Suppliers, Chief Technology Officers, Operations Managers, Process Engineers, Product Managers and Academia. Technical abstracts are due November 28, 2013.
