OCTOBER 19—20, 1999
Austin Convention Center
Austin, Texas
While George W. Bush's presidential candidacy may be the national news out of Austin, Sematech's internationalization and Motorola SPS's consolidation lead the yearly news parade in the local chipmaking community. Semicon Southwest 99 finds the industry in much finer fettle than during 1998's fingernail-chewing exercise, with a solid recovery starting to roll along like an adrenaline-charged guitar solo in a Sixth Street watering hole.
This year's show boasts more than 500 exhibitors in nearly 700 booths occupying just about every available square foot of the Austin Convention Center. The technical education program is highlighted by the dozen sessions of the International Electronics Manufacturing Technology (IEMT) symposium on Monday and Tuesday, October 18-19, while the "Partnership for PFC Emissions Reduction" returns October 18. A briefing on the results of the SEMI/Philips Analytical—cosponsored "Copper Critical" readiness survey will be held October 19 at 10 a.m. (See this month's Industry News section for an initial report on the survey.) A full week of standards meetings is on tap as well.
For those who want to kick-start the week on Monday night with a musical energy burst, we recommend Argentina's favorite roc en español group, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, performing at La Zona Rosa, located on the corner of Fourth Street and Rio Grande. And when you're moseying around the show, stop by and say buenos dias to the MICRO folks at Booth 2247.
