The 45th International Symposium on Microelectronics will be held at the Town and Country Convention Center, San Diego, California, USA, and is being organized by the International Microelectronics And Packaging Society (IMAPS). The IMAPS Technical Committee seeks original papers that present progress on technologies throughout the entire microelectronics/packaging supply chain. The 45th Symposium on Microelectronics will cover three tiers of electronics: Systems and Applications; Design and related measurements; and Materials, Process and Reliability. IMAPS 2012 will feature 5-6 technical tracks that span the two and a half days of sessions on: 3D IC/Packaging; Modeling, Design & Reliability; Next Generation Materials; Advanced Technologies; Advanced Packaging; Assembly and Packaging; as well as Invited/Translated Sessions and an Interactive/Academic Poster Session.
Sessions are being planned and abstracts will be considered on the topics listed below. Abstracts are rated by the technical committee members and are selected into the sessions by the session chairs appointed by the technical committee. Authors should identify their preferred session (topical area) when submitting their abstracts. Abstracts should highlight the major contributions of the work in one or more of these areas. All abstracts submitted must represent original, previously unpublished work.
