| Objective |
The objective of the VLSI Technology
and Circuits Committee is to identify new/hot areas of interest to
the Electron Devices and Solid-State Circuits communities. Based
on the nature of the areas, we will recommend any or all of the following:
-
Initiate topical workshops of current interest (attached to existing conferences
or start new ones)
-
Special Issues for major publications (e.g., T-ED)
-
Panel session topics for major conferences
-
Special Sessions for major conferences

| Membership |
This is a non-voting Ex-Officio AdCom member position with a two-year
renewable term. We expect to limit the membership of the committee
to three years so that new ideas can be incorporated. |
|
| Operation |
This committee operates entirely by email.
There are two Society AdCom meetings a year, with one meeting always being
held in conjunction with IEDM. The other AdCom meeting is normally
held sometime in the April-June time period in conjunction with another
EDS sponsored conference. For 2003, the dates and locations of the
two AdCom meetings are as follows:
| Dates |

| History |
The VLSI Technology and Circuits Technical Committee
was formed in 1998 under the leadership of Prof. Charles G. Sodini (MIT),
followed by Dr. H.-S. Philip Wong (IBM), Werner Weber (Infineon), and Dr.
James A. Hutchby (SRC). Every year, our committee brainstorms (by email)
on ideas that are suitable for a new workshop, special issue for a journal,
panel sessions, and special sessions for conferences. Committee members
then take these ideas forward and find a way to make them happen, either
by being the organizers themselves, or by finding suitable organizers for
the topic. We work closely together with journal editors and conference
organizers. Especially in the case of new workshops, it is much easier
to attach the new workshop to existing conferences rather than to start
new. |
