Welcome to 2003 ICEP  
   On behalf of the Conference Organizing Committee, I cordially welcome you to 2003 International Conference on Electronics Packaging (ICEP) which is jointly sponsored by IEEE CPMT (Components, Packaging, and Manufacturing Technology) Society Japan and IMAPS Japan (International Microelectronics and Packaging Society Japan) / JIEP (Japan Institute of Electronics Packaging).

   We will provide you with a way to integrate the existing diversity of microelectronics packaging technologies. Don't miss this valuable opportunity to add the latest information to your research and development activities or professional skills.

   In the Conference, invited speeches concerning the leading edge technologies both in U.S.A. and Europe will be given. Sessions for individual technologies like 3D packaging, Advanced packaging, Substrate, LTCC (low temperature co-firable ceramics), Materials, Lead-free solders, Plating, Flip-chip technologies, Design and Testing, Thermal management, Reliability, etc. with many papers will be presented for your choice.

   In addition to the conference, the "Microelectronics Show" will be held at "Tokyo Ryutsu Center" which provides you with the latest information on materials, equipment and commercialized technologies in the field of your interest.
