SAN JOSE -- A
top predictor of the turning points in the IC industry is predicting a mild
slowdown in semiconductor sales in mid 2007.
Moshe Handelsman, founder of Advanced Forecasting, told an industry forum last week that the industry is in for its first downturn since 2004. However, he declined to attach hard numbers to his prediction.
HOUSTON — BP Microsystems, a device programming systems supplier, is changing its name and relocating headquarters. The company will now be known as BPM Microsystems.
“Our company has long been the leader in the manufacture of semiconductor programming equipment,” said Lyman Brown, vice president and COO. “Our new name will reflect the same high-quality company that customers and the industry alike have depended on for the past 21 years. However, we look forward to no longer being confused with BP Amoco, the oil company, who also has its headquarters in Houston.”.
The name change is effective as of Aug.28, and will coincide with the opening of its new headquarters building in Houston.
BPM Microsystems is now located at 5373 West Sam Houston Pkwy N, Suite 250 Houston, TX, 77041-5160. The new Website is: bpmmicro.com.

ROLLING MEADOWS, IL – The Institute of Environmental Sciences and Technology (IEST) has release the program for the 24th Space Simulation Conference. The conference will be held Nov. 6–9, in Annapolis, Maryland. Technical sessions run from Nov. 7–9 and are preceded by tutorials on Nov. 6.
The conference is an international forum in space hardware environmental testing for R&D and qualification. It provides an opportunity for engineers, technicians and scientists from industry, government and academia to present and exchange information and ideas on simulating the space environment to develop and test space mission hardware.
Tutorials will include Cryogenic Handling and Safety; Advance Leak Checking Techniques; Vibration Isolation in Space Simulation; and Acoustic Testing on Demand. The technical program will have sessions on Data Acquisition and Analyses; Contamination; New Capabilities and Facilities; Thermal Vacuum Testing; Simulations and Special Topic; and Structural Dynamics Testing.
The conference is co-sponsored by NASA, AIAA, ASTM, Canadian Space Agency (CSA) and Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (JHUAPL).
