Hello,
The last meeting of the IEEE-EMCS Santa Clara Valley chapter in 2006 is a
special joint meeting between EMC Society and Safety Society, and will be
held on Tuesday 12/12/06. Please join us for a rich technical presentation
and a celebration of the Holidays. This meeting is open to all.
We will have a restaurant catering buffet-style dinner for this special
society meeting.**
Time: Social 5:30 p.m. Presentation 6:30 p.m.
Place: Applied Materials Bowers Cafeteria
3090 Bowers Ave., Santa Clara, CA 95051-0804
Subject: Incorporate RoHS and WEEE in to production designs
Abstract: The presentation will cover a review of current and future
electronic product-focused environmental regulations then step back and put
it in to a higher level, strategic perspective. Today industry is reactive
and it is costing us enormous sums of money and little corporate, or in many
cases environmental, return. How can engineers view and incorporate these
requirements in to product designs and how can managers incorporate them in
to a strategic approach to product definition and development? The
presentation will discuss how this might be approached as well as what
industry activity is necessary to support it.
