In support of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, the semiconductor community event sponsored by the Industrial Technology Research Institute - International VLSI Technology, Systems and Applications Symposium (VLSI-TSA) and design, Automation and Test Symposium (VLSI-DAT), today (27) days from the held for three days. This year's theme for the world's major companies have invested networking industry, ITRI electro CT Liu, director, said things will be fully opportunities emerge, estimated global market size will grow things of $ 14.6 billion in 2015 to 261 in 2019 billion, while Taiwan Semiconductor in this trend, driven by output will grow 9.3 percent this year compared with last year. This workshop brought together semiconductor and chip design are the most popular topics, inviting including MediaTek (2454), TSMC (2330), UMC (2303), Mentor (Mentor), IBM, ARM, Applied Materials (AppliedMaterial), STMicroelectronics ( STM), Renesas (Renesas), and other experts, especially for things beyond 2.5D / 3D chip integration technology mole times, innovative applications of unmanned aircraft and other hot topics were discussed. VLSI-TSA co-chairman, director of ITRI electro CT Liu said the current hot topic of things, the world's major companies have invested related industries, networking opportunities fully emerge. ITRI ​​IEK estimates that the global networking market size in 2015 will grow to $ 14.6 billion of $ 26.1 billion in 2019. In addition, the development of things unrest is sweeping various applications, including smart cities, smart home, cars networking to provide more room to grow semiconductor suppliers, driving the rapid growth of related semiconductor output; IEK also forecast 2015 output value of Taiwan's semiconductor industry Hope compared with 2014 growth of 9.3%. Mentor International president and CEO Dr. WaldenC.Rhines morning speech, focused on the theme "Towards the cost of Things era of challenge." Dr. Rhines believes that due to the progress of the wafer manufacturing process, ultra-low-power signal processing chip and packaging technology and a variety of new systems, so that the system is more complex chip design, but also impact and influence on the conventional semiconductor transistor design. VLSI-DAT Collaborative President, Ares, director of ITRI Quezhi Katsuya said that according to ITRI IEK estimates, global networking device networking market in 2020 will be over 50 billion units, networking hardware market will be the last equipment and network infrastructure needs, gradually transferred to the service maintenance and operation section, the manufacturer will trip over to hardware-centric thinking, the development of vertical applications, systems and services solutions and systems integration services to. In the terminal manufacturers transition to integrated systems and services in the process, will focus on the level of estimated pre-integrated network infrastructure, communications protocol contains a sensing device integration, infrastructure and other hardware and software platform for service operations.
