    Washington, DC, May 16, 2002 -- The Optoelectronics Industry Development Association (OIDA) will turn its attention to design, automation, packaging, and standardization issues in photonics manufacturing at its next workshop, to be held at the Boston University Photonics Center (Boston, MA) from June 19-20, 2002.

    The workshop, cosponsored by NIST, is primarily a roadmapping effort designed to supplement OIDA's ongoing efforts to strengthen the photonics-manufacturing infrastructure. The sessions will emphasize strategies for assuring reliability at low cost, design-for-manufacture methodologies, standardized packaging, and when and how to automate.

    Participants will also take part in breakout sessions designed to promote industry consensus on these key issues. Attendees are expected to include manufacturing and design managers across the supply chain who are interested in materials, new-product design, manufacturing processes, standards, testing and
    assembly, and automation.
