21:00-22:30 Panel 1.a: Patent or Perish?
 

Intellectual Property rights in the form of patents play an increasing role, also in our test field. This topic is especially of interest to companies, but also academics get every now and then involved in patents, perhaps as inventor. Patents are important w.r.t. standards, such as our test standards 1149.x, 1450.x, 1500, etc. Large corporations trade their large patent rights portfolio with "friends" under cross licenses, while starting infringement cases against "enemies". For small start-ups, patents might be the bread-and-butter, in order to prevent their customers from simply copying their ideas for free. Also in cooperation contracts between companies and universities, we see more and more clauses on intellectual property rights. And finally: a long list of patents on your resume brings every scientist fame as "inventor"!
Moderator: T. WILLIAMS (Synopsys, USA)
Introduction: N. WOLFF (European Patent Office, The Netherlands)
Panelists:
R. BEKKERS (Eindhoven Univ. of Technology, The Netherlands)

Organizer: E.J. MARINISSEN (Philips Research, The Netherlands)

21:00-22:30 Panel 1.b: Reducing Test Cost: How Much Multi-Site Can You Handle?
  Multi-site testing does not refer to testing at multiple geographical locations, but to testing multiple copies of the same chip in parallel on one test system. It is seen by many as THE way to reduce test costs. Memory chips are typically tested in massive parallel numbers, and increasingly also ASICs, SOCs, and microprocessors are tested this way. What are the economic pros and cons of multi-site testing? Does it really pay off that well? What are upper limits for fixtures and handlers? Can DfT help in enabling multi-site testing, and if so, how? What about analog multi-site testing? And, are there still issues in which the research community might help the test engineering community forward?
