Two formats will be included in the seminar: The technical paper - approximately
30 minutes in length (including Q&A period) and the technical brief - a 
noncommercial 5 to 10 minute presentation. 

POSSIBLE TOPICS:
  
  - Future System Requirements
  - Future Module Designs
  - CBR Survivability
  - Technology Insertion
  - Fiber Optics/Electro Optics
  - AI Manufacturing Processes
  - Robotic Workcells
  - State-of-the-Art Repairability
  - Next Generation Testability
  - SMT Requirements

A copy of each submitted paper and brief will be included in the proceedings.

The presenters are responsible for ensuring that the abstract and paper you 
submit can be released to the public and that any documents submitted do not
contain classified, sensitive, or proprietary information.
