Innovation Practices Track: Silicon Lifecycle Management Challenges and Opportunities

Fei Su, Xiankun Robert Jin, Nilanjan Mukherjee, Yervant Zorian

Abstract: We need to address the multifaceted challenges about silicon and system quality throughout the life cycle of silicon-based systems, spanning from design, production to in-field deployment. Innovations spanning across various parts of the silicon ecosystem are needed. In this session we invited industry experts to discuss technical trends and challenges in semiconductor industry driving a pressing need of more innovations in the emerging field of silicon lifecycle management (SLM). They will present the state-of-the-art SLM methodologies and share their perspectives of this emerging field and thoughts of future R&D directions.
