EDS Fair

EDS (Electronic Design and Solution) Fair

Trade Show Spotlights Key Design Solution Technology

EDSFair is an exhibition that showcases the latest design solutions, designing technology, EDA technology and IP solutions that use it, and designing services. The age of chips with millions of gates is at hand, and advanced development to upgrade device performance, reduce risks, costs and power consumption,and embed software is proceeding at an unprecedented pace around the world. Reflecting this trend, EDSFair assembles specialized information on advanced device technologies, such as EDA, IP re-usage, embedded software and design services. Also featured are the latest trends and targets for further development of electronics technologies. EDSFair responds to the needs of designers and steadily conveys industry information to its targets in the business market. It is a place for exhibitors and visitors to exchange information in effective and meaningful ways and to create business opportunities.

Greeting

The Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA) will be hosting the Electronic Design and Solution Fair 2011 at the Pacifico Yokohama on January 27 (Thursday) and 28 (Friday), 2011.

The goal of EDSFair is to introduce and disseminate information about the latest design solutions, design technologies and EDA technologies required to produce the electronic systems and semiconductors for the IT applications that will form the foundation of the future information society, whose citizens will enjoy a ubiquitous computing environment. The fair thus contributes to the development of electronics and other IT-related industries. This will be the 18th time the fair has taken place, including its previous incarnation as the EDA TechnoFair.

Despite the harsh conditions experienced by the semiconductor market over the past few years as a result of the world economic recession, WSTS (World Semiconductor Trade Statistics) forecast that the market will return to a path of growth in 2010, and that mild growth will continue into 2011 and 2012. The Japanese semiconductor market is also showing promising signs of recovery.

However, in the midst of fierce international competition, there are many issues that need to be addressed such as global environmental conservation and intellectual property protection. In order to speed up industrial competitiveness, it is crucial to train high-quality human resources, focusing on engineers able to address such issues.

"Reinvent the Way You Design" is the theme of this Electronic Design and Solution Fair 2011. You will find on display world-class, cutting-edge technologies tailored for an age that survives this period. There are a variety of seminars and a conference offering a wide range of up-to-date information. There are open sessions catering to young engineers, new zones that bring together both Japanese and foreign venture businesses, as well as initiatives for promoting substantive technical exchanges between industry, academia and government.

It is the fervent desire of all of us in JEITA that EDSFair will contribute to enhancing the design technologies available to Japan's electronic and IT industries, and also that both exhibitors and visitors will be able to make the best use of the opportunities afforded by this event for conducting effective and fruitful exchanges of information, and for generating new business.

We greatly look forward to your visit at the upcoming EDSFair2011.
